How to control our temper?

Hello blackie, Yes I think controlling one's temper is very important. Temper is like an infectious disease sometimes and can be infecting the people around you in very short time. It could be destructive and fatal if gets out of control. Temper is just like a power keg inside our bodies, which may turn into big explosion by just a fuse of simple or small reasons. When we fail to control our temper, it could severely jeopardize our relationships with the people around us. It can destroy friendships, love, care, and life. It can turn people into adversaries, to hate and to retaliate against each other. Controlling our temper sometimes can be difficult. We all have different level of self-control, and reaction to sensitive questions, conversation and attitude. We each have various ways and methods to handle touchy and humiliating actions or words. Me, whenever I am in a difficult situation or an argument I simply just calm and quiet myself. I don't usually let things get out of my hands and would talk and listen in calm manner.
