My dear brothers and sisters, take note of this: Everyone should be quick to listen, slow to speak and slow to become angry, because human anger does not produce the righteousness that God desires.
(James 1:19-20 NIV)
1:19 我親愛的弟兄們、這是你們所知道的。但你們各人要快快的聽、慢慢的說、慢慢的動怒
1:20 因為人的怒氣、並不成就 神的義。
When I'm Feeling Angry
當我生氣的時候
（不要惹我）
When I'm feeling angry, I feel like there is a boiling hot volcano in my tummy that is about to ... EXPLODE!
有的時候我真的很氣很氣。。。
就像。。。
火山要爆炸了有沒有！
When I'm feeling angry I want to kick and scream and stomp ... stomp my feet so hard that the whole world shakes.
那時候我就想大喊大叫用力跺腳，全世界都得被我的怒氣震動了，也不一定能讓我消氣。
I want to run and run and never stop.
Everyone gets angry sometimes.
Some things just make me so mad ... like when someone makes fun of me... or when someone ruins my sandcastle or when I get blamed for something I didn't do.
有的事情很讓我鬱悶。
比如有的人取笑我，
或者毀了我的沙堡，
或者為了莫須有的事情我受了責備！
Feeling angry isn't wrong. But letting my anger hurt someone else is.
生氣並不是什麼錯事。
可是讓我的怒氣傷害別人確實真的錯了。
When I'm feeling angry I try to remember the things that make me feel better...
like taking great big breaths....
in and out
or going to my favourite quiet place.
生氣的時候，我會試著去想那些讓我開心呢的事情，
深呼吸，吸氣。。。呼氣！
或者去到我最喜歡的安靜的角落~~~
Talking about why I'm feeling angry, with someone who cares about me, can help make some of the anger go away.
和那些很愛我的人聊聊天，
也會緩解我的鬱悶，
他們會幫助我排解我的怒氣。
And sometimes, I get so angry that I forget what it was that made me angry in the first place... and that makes me laugh!
有時候，我太生氣了，因為太生氣，我居然忘了起初是為了什麼而生氣。
這個事情，會讓我忍不住想笑！
I have my right to be angry.
But I will often choose to not let my anger hurt others.
Yes, I can choose to say no to anger.
我有生氣的權利。
但我可以經常選擇不讓我的怒氣傷害別人。
我可以選擇不生氣。
