Arg. Grrr. Roar.


I've been thinking about a few things lately, namely: what I can do better as a priesthood holder to avoid any situation that could possibly break the heart of my future wife, or cost me the confidence of my future children, and anger, and about how it makes people feel and act. I'm gonna talk about anger a little. Anger can ruin relationships, and if entertained, can become a monster that is almost uncontrollable. Harmful, caustic words can be said, and things are sometimes done that are regretted. I, for one, do not like the way I feel when I am angry. Apologizing is not easy. I'm sorry. Those two words are the hardest ones to say with sincerity. Making other people feel bad, or angry, or like any less of a person kills me, and I hate it when I do. So, I made a promise to myself, and to the Lord, that from this point on I will not act on anger. If at some point frustration is clouding my judgement, I will leave the situation and come back to it later when my mind is clear. There ya go. Hold me to it, and I'll do my best.
