If someone hit your car, new or not, your going to get mad. Your just supposed to take that? Forget that. Be honest with that idiot and let them know how you feel.

Actually getting mad is a choice you make. It's a subconcious choice for most because they aren't in control of their feelings. But you can choose how you react, you can take a minute and calm yourself down, you can change your mindset.
Most people put themselves on "feelings" autopilot but we can choose not to.
Who do you respect more? The person who flies off the handle or the person who remains calm and dispassionate when faced with adversity?
