Hot Temper?

当你要发脾气时，记住关闭自己的嘴巴，免得增加自己的怒气。

- 希腊哲学家苏格拉底

As I said that I read the Chinese book that teach us how to control our emotion. I know that I am a hot temper person, since I step into form 6, I tried to control my emotion. I noticed that emotion will affect a lot of thing especially friendship. After I read this article, I would like to share with u all. Most of us will said that hot temper is one type of attitude that follow us when we born. Is it true? Let us read this story,

日本的禅师接见一位客人，客人很苦恼的对禅师说：“自从我生下来，我的脾气都很暴躁，请问有什么可以解决吗？”

禅师看着他和问他：“你有带脾气暴躁出来吗？”

客人摇摇头说：“我今天没有带来，不过当发生事情时，他就会自动跑出来”

禅师笑着说：“可见你的脾气暴躁不是天生拥有，而是遇到事情的时候，他才会发作吧！”

客人问：“有办法解决吗？”

禅师开示他说：“当你要发脾气的时候，如果能克制自己，不使它发生，哪里会有脾气暴躁的问题?而且你将脾气暴躁推说是你的天生个性，完全只是推托之词，不是吗？”
