humbled

And then something sneaks up and with a 2x4 re-aligns your priorities.

I must remember not to let other people's priorities become my own.
I must keep in mind that it has been worse.
I must remember to blow off steam, but to temper my flash-in-the-pan temper with reason, humility and empathy.

Funny, these are qualities I have always thought applied well to you, and
I hadn't noticed that your temper was particularly... flashy?
(a'course, some of the folk I have for comparison make ye look even
better...)

I'm profoundly hard to anger and rediculously quick to cool, a dangerous combo that leads most time to people not even noticing I've been irked... in part due to my being rendered speachless when I'm angry. (Literally can't string words together verbally. The written word, on the other hand...)

My temper is like tossing alcohol into a hot pan - sizzle, flash, poof.
