My father has one of the short tempered people I know, its just runs in his side of the family. I too, am quite hot headed, but not as much as my dad. The problem is, whenever he gets hot headed, it just ruins the next hours for me. In other words, I get depressed quickly. I have dealt with this ever since I was a child, and those were the most extreme times of my father's hot headedness actually. So anyhow, after a slight burst of aggravation and the anticipated depression and silence entailing, I thought to myself, have I let this bursts affect me too easily and too long? And thus I realized that in my 16 years of existence and something years of conciousness I have not yet dealt with this problem with my father and further more accepted this certain aspect of himself. And perhaps this certain relational shortcoming hinders the development of our family relationship. God, Im such a good shrink.
