Taking Control:

Let's face it; you can’t always take things too personal.  Others actions and words shouldn’t be modified to walk warily, quietly around your feelings. There comes a point where one must learn how to take and accept the truth for what it is. Creating unnecessary assumptions and manipulating words, situations are nothing more than an new way for you to lie to yourself and possibly those who surround you. Learn how to discern when you’re in a certain "mood”, how to check your attitude, and when to draw back. No-one should have to walk on pins and needles because the other is being entirely too sensitive. Catch yourself before you say and do when you’re extremely infuriated. Being lead with your feelings can quickly turn into you being faced with regrets.  Anger is a strong feeling of displeasure, which then leads to malice and arrogance. It doesn't take much intelligence, thought to be angry; which explains why most of what a person says when angry sounds pretty much ridiculous. When you don’t like something it does not justify that everybody doing it is wrong. Never apologize for being you. If honesty is what you want, then honesty is what you get. Exclude all complaining, don't let it be a part of what you do twenty four seven. Allowing your emotions get the best of you or crying a river is not always necessary when you're being faced with elements. Remember, when asking somebody else to change, it also implies and requires you to prepare yourself to do the same. Be willing to give as much as you take. Not everything said or done is to be taking to heart. Be in tune with your emotions, not controlled by them.
