God created every human being with a particular temperament even though one could on himself or herself to improve it and make it better. One of the temper I dislike is the hot temper. Hot temper can be so destructive if it's not properly managed. I was thinking what's the difference between hot temper and anger? If you are reading this and could help me that would be fine in the comment section.
Anger is natural emotion that everyone has but when it's not controlled it can cause a serious damage to relationships, ruin even opportunities which could even lead to death. I know and I have heard of several people that became of anger did some terrible things. I had a cousin that almost burned my uncle's house because he was angry. Thank God some neighbors were around and came to intervene over the situation.when we truly consider the emotional, physical, and social damage uncontrolled anger causes, we must ask ourselves whether such behavior should continue to be tolerated or excused.
Most people that are hot temper hurt others deeply through their actions, words and other aspects. Anyone who can't manage his or her anger may threaten, abuse or humiliate others whenever they are angry. Some families today suffer simply because of their inability to control temper. In the society today, many marriages break apart due to hot temper. Some children raised in such environments develop anxiety, low self-esteem, or even become aggressive themselves because anger becomes normalized to them.
In organizations, other workplaces hot temper can be toxic and even create toxic environments. There are cases where people lose job and other important relationships because of uncontrolled temper. Many things that took years to be build or constructed could be destroyed by just anger. With all the damages that this attitude causes should it be used as an excuse? Or something need to be done?
We have varied experiences and our emotions too differs hot temper should not become an excuse for harmful behavior. Understanding a person’s background or emotional pain can help explain their behavior, but explanation is not the same as justification. Society must learn to show compassion without removing accountability. If someone constantly hurts others because of anger yet refuses to seek help or change, then the issue goes beyond personality — it becomes a responsibility problem.
I think people with this kind of challenge shouldn't be left alone instead counseling and mental health support should also be encouraged rather than stigmatized. Many people suffer silently with emotional struggles that later explode through anger. Therapy, mentorship, and support groups can help individuals understand the root causes of their temper and develop healthier coping mechanisms. Seeking help should be seen as strength, not weakness.
As I conclude, hot temper is not something society should casually excuse because its effects can be devastating. While anger is a normal human emotion, uncontrolled anger becomes destructive to individuals, families, and communities. Society must balance compassion with accountability by helping people address the roots of their anger while refusing to normalize harmful behavior. Emotional education, counseling, good parenting we can raise people who can apply wisdom to solve conflict instead of anger.
Thanks
