My Mistakes: Anger

I lost my temper tonight.

I know exactly how it happened. I was driving home and thinking about someone who frustrated me today. My mind wouldn't let go. At first it was comical thinking of this person frustrating me. But as I dwelt on it more and more, my mind grew more egotistical. More frustrated. More pissed off. By the time I was home I was in a mood.

I hid my mood and pushed it down, rather then handling it.

As I came in the door, my wife noticed I bought her pizza, but ordered the wrong type. She let me know she wasn't happy. At first I held my tongue and thought "ah! a test. I will remain calm." Then a few min later, I burned the pizza by accident. She again corrected me, but this time I lost my temper. I told her in anger that I wasn't pleased (in various words.)

My fault started with ego - talking/thinking of others as less then me...
