"There are three things you need to know about people who get angry very easily," said Jordan Peterson:
1. "They have a good and kind heart. Beneath their fierce exterior, they are more compassionate and sensitive to emotions, which means they feel both the highs and lows intensely. This sensitivity can manifest itself as a high temper, but it is often rooted in their deep care for the world around them." Their anger is often a shield guarding a heart that feels too much.
2. They love wholeheartedly, and because of this, the ones they love often take it for granted, and so they are underappreciated and undervalued. This leads to feelings of frustration.
3. Once they get on your bad side, FORGET IT. They will ignore you with passion and negate your entire existence. They use their anger as a protective mechanism to guard their heart from further hurt. They create distance for self-preservation rather than spite.
What can we learn from this? Instead of dismissing someone's anger, try to understand the depth of feeling behind it. If you can relate to or know someone like this, show them consistent appreciation and respect – it could make all the difference. Remember:
The most passionate hearts are also the most vulnerable.
