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.

During that time, since it was rush hour, it was calculated that thousand of people went through the station, most of them on their way to work. Three minutes went by and a middle aged man noticed there was musician playing. He slowed his pace and stopped for a few seconds and then hurried up to meet his schedule. A minute later, the violinist received his first dollar tip: a woman threw the money in the till and without stopping continued to walk. A few minutes later, someone leaned against the wall to listen to him, but the man looked at his watch and started to walk again. Clearly he was late for work. The one who paid the most attention was a 3 year old boy. His mother tagged him along, hurried but the kid stopped to look at the violinist. Finally the mother pushed hard and the child continued to walk tur...
