so i hate when i get mad and it's usually over something so small and usually to one of the people i love most! i was cutting kents hair today and to say the least got very irritated with his instructions and i threw the scissors(not at him) and stormed off. well i felt terrible all day especially since he was leaving for his job for a week. i did say sorry but i still hate when i act this way. later as i was reading scriptures with the kids there was a quote at the bottom that caught my eye: "anger is not an expression of strength. it is an idication of one's inability to control his thoughts, words, or emotions...when the weakness of anger takes over, the strength of reason leaves."-Pres. Gordon B. Hinkley
hopefully i can do better at keeping my cool!

Thanks for posting that quote i think that i really needed to read that i have been kinda crouchy lately. It has a lot of meaning to it thanks.
Thank you for that - that is a fantasic quote and I appreciate your story. Why wouldn't you be a little upset, he's gone for a week at a time!!!
