Have you ever had a friend that you truly cared about and cherished your friendship with, but who is frequently so bothersome when you get out with them because of the way they interact with you and say things you take seriously? I have people like this in my group of friends, and while I was initially irritated by their acts, I couldn't stay upset with them for very long because I understood most of their antics were intended as pranks.

FRIENDS
One of the people on that list is a close friend of mine named Samuel. Samuel never seems to seem to take anything seriously and tends to turn everything into a joke to the point where you just look at him and wonder, "Does this guy even have any plans or ambitions in life?"
However, I believe that he generally approaches life with the intention of remaining cheerful no matter what, and I believe that this has prevented him from becoming too overwhelmed by any difficulties he may have had.
I have a number of other friends who are just like him, but no matter how upset I get with them, I usually only respond with a mild annoyance that will pass quickly, In order for them to understand how it felt to be me when they were doing theirs, one thing I occasionally do is to give them a taste of their own medicine whenever they are being serious as well.

FAMILY
I have had circumstances where my siblings have acted in a way that has irritated me much. Despite how disgusted I become with them, I continue to bring them closer since we are all that we have.
In spite of how unpleasant some parents can be, even when they impose meddlesome rules and punish me for things that aren't worth it, personally, I manage my anger against them and quickly move on from the incident.

The bottom line is that we shouldn't indulge in anger at all because doing so can inflict more damage than we had anticipated. Additionally, if someone can control their anger, they can avoid having frequent conflicts with other people.
Nonetheless, we should still speak up and let others know when they are doing something wrong. However, how we say it will affect how the other person will react.
