Arlene Mathiah BORIVLI, MARCH 17, 2009: Anger is human, it is an emotion that each of us possess. Though we are not born with it, it is something acquired and then becomes part and parcel of our lives. Anger can have a very destructive impact in our lives and hence it is important to know how to manage it. We were lucky to have a short seminar on ‘Anger Management’, organized by our parish priest Fr Ronald Menezes on March 14 and 15, 2009. The resource person for the seminar was Ms. Davis from our Lady of Lourdes Parish, Orlem. On the first day the sessions were for the confirmation students and other parishioners who were interested. The second day was for the 8th standard Sunday School children and their parents. Using visual aids and citing several real life examples, Ms. Davis explained how we should learn to turn our negative emotions into positive actions. Anger leads to violence and violence harms society. Hence, managing our negative emotions, such as anger, can have several positive consequences on society. The sessions were extremely insightful and the participants learnt a lot through the seminar.
