Shortest Route to Happiness

There are many factors that give a person happiness, like health, wealth, love, friendship, environment, etc. But the absence of a single factor can bring maximum happiness. And that is ANGER.

Anger harms your body by releasing adrenalin every time you fly off the handle. (Also known as ‘Fight or Flight Hormone’. This mechanism is there in nature to cope in emergency or during war-like situation). And in peacetime it causes atherosclerosis and high blood pressure, severely damaging your heart. In mental sphere anger causes you distress followed by enmity towards or sorrow for the object of your ire. Both negative feelings.

There is another feeling that feeds your Anger - PRIDE. Be proud of your deeds and leave it at that; don’t carry the feeling under your skin. This can enhance your rage. Don’t compare your self with lesser mortals.
