Why would one shout in anger?

Read this from The Star.... Enjoy =)   

Once a professor asked his students, "Why do we shout in anger? Why do people shout at each other when they are upset?"

The students said, "We shout because we lose our calm."

"But why shout when the other person is just next to you? Isn't it possible to speak to him /her with a soft voice?"

The students gave various answers, none of which satisfied the professor. Finally, he explained, " When 2 people are angry with each other, their hearts distance. To cover the distance, they must shout to be able to hear each other. The angrier they are, the louder they will have to shout to hear each other through that great distance."

Then he asked, "What happned when 2 people fall in love? They don't shout at each other but talk softly. Why? Because their hearts are close. The distance between them is very small. When they ove each other even more, what happened? They don't speak - They only whisper and get closer to each other in thier love. Finally, they don't even need to whisper, they only look at each other, that's all. That's how close 2 people are when they love each other."

So when you argue, don't let your heart get distant or say words that distance each other even more, or there may come a day when the distance is so great you will never find the path back to each other.

It is sad to see that when love get's too close the couple becomes too quiet... and telepathy sets in in all matters of decision, which half the times don't work as it ought to. And it came to the point they have have to have a little bit of distance to fill the quietness. Or just have a kid run around. Lol

hahahaha.... True in some sense... But can't deny the fact that the closer you are with a person, you will somehow know what's running in that person's mind (well definitely not 100%) =)

Hm. If only that was true. Unfortunately, love brings out the worst in us so much, we forget about the good.

Love will hurt due to the imperfection of this world. The world will never be perfect as all are sinners.

But amidst this imperfection, here is a comfort for you. You can be perfect in Christ Jesus.

For only Christian will be able to look forward to the time (after death) when every stain of sin shall be removed by the blood of Christ and be presented as faultles and without spot.

Lift up your soul, to know that there's still hope in Christ, in this imperfect world. Have you then secure this hope?

Behold, stand and admire this blessed truth of perfection in Christ.
