(There will be time when parents will need to allow their children to stand on their own and make decisions that will determine their own future)

Another was late at night when I was still in the office, asking me to drop by his workplace to pick up something.

I was angry this morning – not sure why. Perhaps it is due to Monday blues but I was not sure but I ready for a punch out this morning (ya, I was looking for trouble)

I was angry at the girl at the toll booth for collecting my money fraction seconds slower, I was angry at the idiots who cut into my lane without any warning, I was angry at the road hogger was slower than me and just do not want to move away, I was angry at the factory girls who were crossing the road slowly even though I was speeding and aiming “straight” at them, I was just too angry.… [Click to read the rest] “I was angry!”
