Simplified Meaning:

When people get very angry, they often end up causing more problems for themselves and others. Think about a plane that tries to land in bad weather; it doesn't work out well and might crash. Similarly, when someone loses their temper, they might say or do things that are harmful or regrettable. For example, imagine a person who gets furious at their friend over a misunderstanding. In their rage, they might shout hurtful things or even break something. Later, when they've calmed down, they might realize they were wrong and feel sorry for their actions. However, the damage is already done, and it can be hard to fix the friendship. To avoid these bad outcomes, it's better to stay calm and think before reacting. If you feel yourself getting really angry, take a moment to breathe and cool down. This way, you'll handle the situation more wisely and avoid creating more issues.
