I was taught discipline and self-control. At the time I had no idea what it meant. But it hit me almost too quickly... I struggled with myself for so many years because I couldn't adjust to what people expected of me. Through middle school I was a very angry person. Then one night... I had an epiphany. I just realized, who cares? I'm going to be myself and if people can't handle that too bad. Slowly I roped myself in and grasped hold of a concept better than anyone could dream of. I looked back and learned what it meant to have self discipline. Since high school, I was, and still am possibly the best person you could ever want to know. Nothing ever bothers me. I don't condemn, call out, or ridicule anyone. I'm patient, friendly, and understanding. I would never harm another man unless he harmed me first (physically).
Wow this is a freakin' rant. Anyone want a hug?
The question is simple. Can you control yourself?
