I never hated volcanoes. I might have, if there are as many volcanoes as the mountains in the world or just one active volcano near my place. Volcano eruptions produce hazardous gases. It destroys the surrounding environment. It even impacts the psychology of the lives. Why volcanoes? Why the emotion anger? Nature has nothing that exists without a purpose, every so often beyond our understanding.
Though volcano eruptions are visible to the world when they happen, they are the result of processes happening inside the earth for several years. Though we feel the emotion instantly, the reason for our anger is mostly a result of our accumulated beliefs. It typically is a clash between what we believe and the force that tries to alter that belief. Of course, apart from psychological reasons, physical pains also cause anger, but they are momentary.
While we usually laugh when the child gets angry and the way he expresses it, our elders see our anger similarly. Perhaps that is why we talk a lot about controlling our anger as much as possible, as the time taken gives a different perspective of it. But should we really suppress our anger every time? It is natural to get angry and so why control, suppress it? I think that is because we are humans, and we constantly define our own “natural” and the “right” way of doing things though its perfection seems immensely far away.
A wise human understands when to show anger and when to suppress it and when to control it, regardless of whether it is right or not. He may fail at times, but he will eventually learn it as there are forces to teach it - from love to the power of the other side. So count 1, 2, 3… to control your anger and make it die. By this you are losing something of you for the good of you. Please note, dormant volcanoes are as dangerous as other volcanoes. Only the dead volcanoes are safe. By nature, not all volcanoes are dead and that should be fine.

I was looking for the books I planned to buy in the Chennai Bookfair 2011 and I found this book . There was something attractive, though it was not as beautiful as of many of the books cover design, it should be the cover of it, because all I could see was only the book cover. I took it in my hand and asked myself, should I buy this?, yes was the answer and I bought it. I completed reading this book last week, after keeping it the shelf for almost 2 years. I am glad I got this book. It is one of best books I read in the recent years. The phrase " For you, a thousand times over " lingering in the mind is the proof that I really enjoyed reading this book and moved so much ;) " I became what I am today at the age of twelve, on a frigid overcast day in the winter of 1975 &
