i think the reason why i've decided to start maintaining this blog is 'cause i've been getting pretty flustered lately...mainly from work, but sometimes with family too.

last week, while i was having lunch with an old friend that i hadn't seen in months, he made a comment that i was pretty negative about the happenings in my life. i seemed to focus on all the frustrations/challenges instead of appreciating the positives that were also happening. while there is definitely some truth in what he said, i do believe that i had reached a boiling point with various events and i was simply venting. then, later that week i ending up blowing up at a good friend over a somewhat petty insult.

those events made me think it might be therapeutic for me to put some of my thoughts down to avoid more of these misguided fits...

call it 'anger management 101' if you'd like...=)
