Asking for it or not, I have come to the conclusion that I should at least make the attempt to turn the other cheek... And I am having a hell of a time doing that.

I am not picking fights any more with anybody that looks at me sideways, but it seems the steam builds up and is relieved in other ways.

I did it at the last kilt night too. With out going in to details, I came very, very close to dragging somebody outside. And I'll leave it at that. Overly protective of my wife at the time, homicidal urges very, very difficult to control.

It is so very easy to bring harm to another when they slight you, so very difficult to bless those that curse you. I... I am not a strong enough man to do so. I want to be, but weakness manifests.
