Auto-pilot on Anger

I hear something.
I see something.
A new issue.
A horrible situation.
It stirs emotions,
Captures my attention.
I stew over the ideas and concepts,
In-inevitably they work their way into the way I think.

Anger.

A strong emotion.
almost one of the strongest.

Unbridled -
Dangerous.

Un-accounted -
Disastrous

I struggle with the natural inclination to dwell here
In this state of anger - even righteous anger
without paying attention to the direction of my momentum

Anger is a fuel.
It pushes us in a particular direction.
Self-control is my hands on the steering- wheel, and the word of God navigating the way.
Self- control without God is only zealous and radical,
Anger without self-control is as dangerous as a truck on full speed with a monkey as a driver.
