There is nothing like a good argument or disagreement to get the blood pressure up. If not dealt with immediately things can heat you up to the point that tempers flare up and things are said and done that you will later regret.
One of the easiest and quickest ways to disarm a volatile situation is with a soft answer. Don’t respond to the aggression of others with the same sort of aggression in return. A soft answer turns away wrath, king Solomon once said. And it is still true today.
The next time someone is bent on proving a point, even if it means picking a point, respond with, “Whatever,” and then walk away. You will surprised at how much better you feel. There are some fights that are just not worth fighting!
