Anger by Yemeya Ochosi

             According to Yemeya Ochosi in her essay titled Anger she believes that the old saying "an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth," has to do with revenge; however she quotes Dr. Martin Luther King who says, " The old law of an eye for an eye leaves everybody blind." It is a fact that natural human tendency is to react to an offence made towards them verbal, physical, emotional, and mental. The law of physics states that for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction, this fact is true in a physical phenomenal, but I personally believe that should be a reaction but not in form of revenge. It should be in form of love. That is exactly what should separate us from animal natures because we are human. We have knowledge, understanding, and we have a power to think and execute, but the source to that thought should come from your heart and not just from your mere physical reaction, but an equal and opposite response to settle the matter with love so nobody else get hurt again. Some people believe that the old saying of "an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth," has to do with revenge, but also some people believe that the old saying of Dr. Luther King that it says, "the old law of an eye for an eye leaves everybody blind". I believe and agree with Dr. Luther King that "the old law of an eye for an eye leaves everybody blind".
             Nobody is perfect, we are not flawless. If we obey that law of eye for an eye there would be no peace because we would be always fighting and taking revenge. If we were perfect, we would not be human. I think human comes to this earth to experience the ups and downs of life.so if we keep responding to every body's downs with downs, we all would be down. Law of physics state that every action has an equal and opposite reaction; it also states that energy cannot be created or destroyed but can be transformed from one form to another, now let's add love ...
