Proverbs 15: 1
The soft response removes the anger;
But the harsh word raises the furor.
In life it is usually found with two classes of people: The wise or prudent and the fool, fauto or mocking. The wise seek wisdom and love instruction, but the fool rejects discipline and correction. For this reason we find several attitudes in the mouth of man. However, the Bible advises that there are many who speak like sword thrusts, but the tongue of the wise is medicine.
I want to exemplify with the anecdote of crumpled paper what can provoke anger at an opportune moment, so that we can reflect on the attitude of man without prudence.
Crumpled Paper:
He told a preacher that, as a child, his impulsive nature made him explode in anger at the slightest provocation.
After it happened, he almost always felt ashamed and struggled to apologize to the one he had offended.
One day his teacher, who saw him giving justifications after an explosion of anger at one of his classmates, took him to the classroom, handed him a sheet of plain paper and said:
-Get it! The boy, not without some surprise, obeyed and made a little ball with the paper. "Now," the teacher said again, "leave it as it was before.
Of course he could not leave it as it was. As much as I tried, the paper always remained full of wrinkles and folds.
Then the teacher finished saying: -The heart of people is like that role. The footprint that you leave with your offense will be as difficult to erase as those wrinkles and those folds.
Thus he learned to be more understanding and more patient, remembering, when he is about to explode, the example of crumpled paper.
The man who acts angry leaves traces in his heart and in the lives of others, can change the destiny of his life and affect who he loves. Therefore we must try to act angry, because prudence and sanity are absent. And the Bible advises that the sanity of man stops his anger and his honor is to disguise the offense, then, the wise keeps the wisdom and placates the offense.
There is no wiser thing in the life of man than to act prudently in his actions. It is known that life presents conflicts and the performance in the midst of them makes us make unwise decisions, but the Bible says that the soft response removes the anger, but the word aspera makes the fury rise.
