Kate, unfortunately too many individuals run on impulse, and don�t realize that many long-term detrimental aftereffects occur because one�s anger has allowed rational behavior to go by the wayside. Your unique gift at bringing these emotional attributes into the open is a shining testament to your wonderful contribution to mankind. Thank you for sharing. Take good care and be well.
