My mom is currently irrate for no particular reason which is what is making me thinking about this. You have a choice when someone you know gets mad at you, you can love them or you can get mad back. We have a tendency as humans to get mad back. To become defensive and say mean and hateful hings in return, to protect ourselves or so we believe. But we really only end up hurting our realtionships and ourselves. Spread the love people. Even though they dont want to hear how yo love they or anything of the sort, it doesnt matter because if you stay calm instead of get angry there are only two choices for them. Get angry at you for being calm, or diffuse all anger elsewhere. Obviously the latter is preffered.
Maybe we should put other people ahead of ourselves. Maybe we should just let them attack us without reason. I know that seems more than a little stupid. Very few of us would like to just turn the other cheek, (insert bible) but maybe when its someone we care about, we can stop being selfish asses and just put ourselves as fully into there shoes as possible.

I think this is a good point and true to an extent...but I think there has to be a balance. Not saying you should get angry back at someone who is mad at you but that you can't let everyone walk all over you. I guess the key here would be to know whose just angry at you and whose just mean to you. I don't know if I'm making any sense.
