I was a hothead for a long time. Got angry easily and got into fights easily. It cost me multiple jobs and ruined any chance at a good career. I've spent more than one night in the lockup on account of bar fights. It cost me my wife, my family, and my friends.

Now I am older and I guess I have mellowed with age. Almost never get angry like that anymore. But looking back I can see my temper ruined and controlled my whole life. All that anger for stupid reasons or no reason at all. Maybe I could have accomplished something in my life if I hadn't been such a hothead.

I was never a cruel or Malicious person, I just flew off the handle too easily. Then I would feel guilty but there is little sympathy for a hothead in this world. Well, that's my story.
