Managing Your Emotions
What makes me angry?
Mostly,l hate when someone tries to make someone else feel bad.
I have to admit that once, when l was actually called names.
l regretted doing this afterwards, but not full heartedly because l think l was provoked in that situation.
The most postive way of dealing with anger is talking about the problem.
l talk to someone who listens, or l'll write my thoughts down on paper.

When you're younger, you might yell,or cry when you're angry, but as you get older, you're expected to handle your emotions much better.
Learning to control your emotion now will prevent you from doing something that you'll regret later on in life!
