You know me in real life, don't you?

This is advice I wish I could follow. Sadly, I seem genetically predisposed. I can't say for sure my dad's anger ended him, but I do know two things. 1> He was really pissed off a couple weeks prior to his passing, and 2> I inherited and amplified every bit his lack of temper control.

I will try to take your advice withing my shortcomings! I appreciate the good thoughts!
