Linda and the dog

ben

The dog in the neighborhood kept on barking. It had started the moment Linda turned on her computer to finish her research paper. As if no more tomorrows for the dog grinding its throat and had barked incessantly. At first Linda ignored the dog. But as the night went deeper and as she went more focused on her work, she had felt a little annoyance towards the dog. She went out and shouted at the dog to stop barking. For a moment, the dog stopped making any sound. But as Linda approached her room which was beside the dog's house, the dog  started to bark again. She angrily went outside this time to tame the noisy dog. She shouted again at the top of her lungs which prompted the dog to shut its mouth temporarily up. Linda thought that the dog would stop from barking after she shouted at it loudly, but still when Linda was concentrating on her work, the dog unwaveringly unleashed its loudest outcry that made Linda lose her temper. Linda took the scissors on her table and she walked fast towards the dog's direction. She threw the scissors aiming at the dog. After some seconds, the dog moaned miserably as it ran around the neighborhood to seek for help.

Thought to ponder: Linda fought with a dog. Are you like Linda? How do you manage your anger? How long can you keep your tolerance to something?
