Rage, Wage and Age: In summary, the universe does these to us.
RAGE:
Definition.- Defining rage will open you to the good and bad aspects of the definition. One part says it is good and the other part says it is bad.
Rage is defined as "violent uncontrollable anger," and the other says "a vehement desire for passion."
Looking at these definitions, you will see that the words are the same but the mean different things and can be applied to the good and bad of life.
I have seen man kill man because of rage. I grew up in the ghetto and my environment always comes with some sorts of rage, so it is something I saw and still see.
Rage for good and bad?
Living a life free of rage and holding on to the beat things that makes for true living is what many fail to get.
See these two cases below.
A woman was said to have killed her husband because she heard he has another family outside of wedlock. Good thing she did, some applauded her, but the law begged to differ- she bagged 21years imprisonment.
Ken had been celibate for 3 years and he had vowed to stay that way since his wife Mau died in childbirth.
Last week while at beach hanging out with friends he saw her again and this time, he knew he wanted her.
His mind quickly drifted to that moment where he will peel every single clothing from her body. As he looked at her, his penis throbbed, threatening to burst out of his zipper. The passionate rage was too much to hold and his zipper burst open.
Opening his eyes, he discovered he had made a mess of himself again for the third time this week. He flipped over the bed spread in rage and headed for the toilet to clean himself up.
WAGE.
The sum factor of what we earn for the work we do and don't do is called wages. You toil from Nine to Five or you Steem like I am doing right now, you will get you due wage.
Definition.- This is a fixed regular payment earned for services or work done. It also means, what you get paid or are compensated with by reason of doing some work.
Steemit is not the first social media to come into our lives, but it just happens to be the one that knows how to compensate us for giving her our time.
When you sin, there is a wage and that wage is death. When do good, there also is a wage, and that wage is goodwill.
-The man was wicked and lived like there was none else but himself. He had cars, mansions and companies scattered around the world but every 2 years, he loses a member of his family in a sudden and suspicious circumstances.
Words are hushed and the tune is set at gossip. Is he responsible for their deaths? Why does he always become richer when someone dies in his home? Why does he not sleep in his home and chooses to spend the nights in hotels?
These and more were asked.
Just last week, he was beaten to death after being caught with the head of a 3 months old baby inside his car.
- As a young man, he has always believed in working and doing everything possible to remain faithful. For 10 years he has been faithful to his employer while everyone else helped themselves to the wealth of the organization.
He wouldn't steal and he wouldn't cheat, he was "mister too good."
Last week, news of the boss's death filtered him and everyone knew he was going to be booted out by the new management.
It was time, the day of reckoning and yet, he was already being judged. The lawyers read and the letters stated he was now boss and his judges found themselves out of a job.
AGE.
From when we are born until we get to the last of our days on earth, I believe that Age is a conspiracy.
As kids, we grow up counting everyday of our lives and look forward to telling everyone how old we are, but as we draw near to death, we prefer to not be bothered.
When was the last time you sincerely told someone how old you really are? Do you, like lots of folks say "I am plus 1 today or I am an adult?"
The universe uses our Rage, Wage and Age to simplify our existence and also still throws that in for when we try to live life.
We Rage through life in the good and the bad, we earn our Wages in the good and the bad and we live our age in the good and bad.
The universe amongst many things, sucks because it clearly summarizes what we are and would be.
What is your Rage, Wage and Age story?

Rage is a maddening emotion. It brings out the insanity in a man and every man does have that moment. But one must cultivate the habit of putting it in reins so it does not get out of hand and become a raging inferno. Increasing Age, on the whole, is supposed to make someone mellower and wise. What I simply smile over now are the same things I would have killed for, a few years back. Thank you for sharing boss.
This was full of so much thought, quality content and effort. I sincerely hope I can write this good some day.
Thanks. You already write good, just use the rage to form your words.
@ejemai nicely put together. RAGE is an unhealthy emotion that can be likened to an uncontrollable fire that consumes every thing in its path and when it runs itself out, it's closely followed by regrets, depression and punishment on the costs to both RELATIONSHIPS ,LIVES and PROPERTY. I do believe no matter the hardship nothing is worth the taking of human life for short term monetary gain but if we work hard enough in our respective fields with honor and diligence while looking for creative ways to promote ourselves soon enough our WAGES transforms to ROYALTIES maybe . AGE a way for time to make way for the new and to add value and prestige to the old as you can see from the priceless vintage cars,vintage musical records, Classical Arts, dated wine like you mentioned. while not discounting the marvels of the 21st century in terms of technological innovations and advancements. I still feel the New Age has lost its soul.
Thanks. As humans with emotions that we mostly sometimes cannot control, we must be willing to take the initiative by ensuring we have a kind of set standard on the way we behave and handle affairs of the heart. And for Age, you said it all
interesting postings very good, I like
Wow, it's amazing to see how you connect these words and established a relationship between words that wouldn't necessarily portray relationship on the surface @ejemai
Thanks, these things, words and actions are all related. You just have to take a look and connect the dots.
blessfull information..rage and wage..learnt from that..
Thanks
Its so funny how rage can shape a life.
Positive rage brings positive wage, negative rage brings negative wage. I agree with you totally on the age subject and its kinda funny the older we get we just prefer not to be bothered about it
Using these built up rage the right way could be the key to a truly defining moment in our lives. Make the best use of your time and live for the moments. We will always bother less about our age as we grow up.
I’m in agreement
Wow, this is good. Amazing post bro.
Thanks
you are right in your article, but i don't really believe there is a good part of rage, because i see rage as an accumulated, uncontrollable anger that develops into rage and can cause destruction which leads to regret. And about the age, its so true especially with women. I also find it difficult to disclose my age and i feel its natural with women. Thanks for sharing @ejemai
Good never comes from anything that is rage induced. We must all learn to live within limit of self control by working on ourselves and living like we feel no hurt. Age, well its a number and with time, we talk less about it.
thanks
