Mad and Sad Is Your Choice

Master yourself
Think first
Gave my power away
I was the very angry kid
Little things used to infuriate me
I said people made me angry
Mad and sad was my choice
Don’t speak in haste
Master yourself.

The wisest thing I ever learned was 'Don't speak in haste' for once the words are out they are real-

I have had to work on this so hard, I sometimes find myself biting my tongue hard.
