#3002 Wings Over The Mountains of Life
A Cup of Coffee
===========
An interesting fact of physics:
If you yelled for 8 years, 7 months and 6 days, you would have
produced enough sound energy to heat one cup of coffee.
Hardly seems worth it, does it?
It is a supposed fact of physics but also a corollary of spirit.
Most fussing, yelling, and cursing causes far more harm than
good and usually isn't worth the effort. All of the good it
does over the years probably isn't worth a cup of hot coffee.
Not that I advocate coffee, for the reason why I don't read:
"Weeds and Seeds," http://www.mountainwings.com/past/1184.htm
The next time you are inclined to huff and puff and blow off
steam by raising your voice with five minutes of yelling at
something or someone, remember with another 8 years, 7 months,
5 days, 23 hours and 55 minutes of yelling, you could have a
cup of hot java.
(Prov 15:1) A gentle answer turns away wrath, but harsh words
stir up anger.
Is the hot cup of coffee worth stirring up with anger?
Coffee doesn't hear you. People do.
And it only takes one second of yelling to heat them up.
Reminds me of a sign on the door of a room in my college dorm:
"Be Cool or Be Gone."
Keep your cool, coffee is not the only thing that's ground up.
Coffee anyone?
