As stated

earlier most aggression In society Is probably due
to displacement. It's not personal so don't let it become
personal. Similarly, there is no room in any kind of lifethreatening
situation for ego -all the ego will do is get you
into trouble. I had a friend who was out in the park with his
wife and baby daughter. The child was in a pushchair. It was
a lovely summer's day and there were a lot of people
wandering around the park. Just a normal Sunday afternoon
really. He didn't even notice the three skinheads sizing him
up about 100 yards in front (avoidance) and by the time he
was fully aware of their presents they already had the
Stanley knife out and were threatening to 'cut' his daughter if
he didn't hand over his wallet.
