Hey Everyone, I hope you are all fine and doing great. This post is my entry for the weekly featured content in the #Hivelearners community. Today's topic to write about is Settling An Argument

Our lives are not constant; with time and circumstances, we have to bring different changes within ourselves. There’s a time when we are very emotional, and then comes a time when we learn to control those emotions and start making decisions after analyzing everything carefully.
"My life has been quite like that too. When I look back at how I used to be, I can’t help but laugh at myself. Let me share an incident with you that’ll give you an idea of just how emotional I used to be".
I should mention here that I would get emotional or angry mostly when someone blamed me for something I hadn’t done. For example, if I was being accused of something I didn’t even do — then that person was in trouble! In such situations, it used to be extremely difficult for me to control myself.
The incident goes something like this — we were playing, just four friends. I’m talking about my childhood here. While we were playing, something happened that I could’ve never imagined: one of our toys went missing. We tried really hard to find it, but it was nowhere to be found.

When my friend’s mom came, she directly accused me of taking the toy. It was a completely false, baseless, and unfair accusation. I kept telling her that I hadn’t taken it, but she insisted that I must have hidden or stolen it. That really made me angry. I completely lost my temper and, in a moment of rage, I picked up a stone lying nearby and threw it in her direction.
Thankfully, it didn’t hit her. And luckily, the toy was found too — it had been hidden by another boy. The aunty later gave me a hug and apologized as well. It’s just one of those childhood stories. To be honest, I’ve been in situations like this more than once.
Another incident happened just a few months ago. I had gone to a wedding, and there, in front of my eyes, an elderly person told a lie. And then, to make that lie seem like the truth, you wouldn’t believe how many more lies they told.
I directly told them that they were lying and doing something wrong. But they didn’t admit it, not till the very end. We even ended up having a bit of an argument over it. But since they were elder to me, I had to stay quiet out of respect.
But after all these incidents and stepping into practical life, I’ve learned something important — you should do your best not to drag arguments for too long. Most of the time, arguments happen with the people closest to us. And in the end, it doesn’t really matter who was right or wrong.

Sometimes, for the sake of those you truly love, you choose to stay silent and let things go. And believe me, you will be rewarded for that patience.
Our religion has spoken highly about the reward for such behavior. For example, even if you are right, but you choose to walk away from an argument just because the other person is someone close to you, or because you don’t want the disagreement to turn into a fight — then you are doing a truly noble act.
And you will be rewarded for it, both in this world and in the Hereafter.
I hope you all will also act upon this. Take care of yourselves.
