Shouts in Anger



Once a professor asked his students: 'Why do some people shout when in anger? Why do people shout at each other when they are upset?'

The students thought for a while before one of them 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 with a soft voice?'

The students gave many answers but none of it satisfied the professor.

Finally, the professor explained:'When 2 people are angry with each other, their hearts became distanced. To cover that distance, they shout so that each can hear the other. The angrier they are, the louder they shout.'

Then the professor asked again 'What happens when 2 people fall in love? They do not shout but talk softly to each other. Because their hearts are too close to each other. The distance became very small'.

'What happens when they love each other even more? What happens? They do not speak. They only whisper. And in the end, finally, they do not even need to whisper. They only have to look at each other, that's all. '

So, when you argue, do not shout and let your hearts get distant. There will come a day when the distance is so great that you might not find the path back to each other.
