Question
What makes you angry?
Solution
Disrespectful behaviour gets under my skin and tests my patience. Unjustified rudeness and a lack of common respect motivate anger within me. A lack of respect for politeness undermines the fundamental principles of human connection that I value, leaving me frustrated as I try to maintain peace and understanding in the face of disrespect.
