DAY 5
Today is the last day of my virtue. i learned a lot about myself in these last few days. anger is not the key to success. people with anger really hurt their selfs emotionally.
in the first two days i began to grow as a person. my mind set on things began to change. i started to find the good side on things. i found out that writing is a passion of mine and i will continue to do so.

DAY 4
finally my anger has simmered down. every moment today i've been calm.there was no arguements no rage nothing.i feel really good and cool.
no one can tell me that i can't do anything i put my mind to. i am an indivisual and no one can take that away from me.the facts that other think they're better than others really irritates me. we as people need to rise up against this.

DAY 3
As the day goes on my anger goes from bad to worst. everywhere i go someone is making me mad and it's really effecting my life. i know you cna't live a great life with anger inside of you but there is alawys something or someone that push my buttons. the only thing that can help is focus.
Focus can help me go very far in life. if i focus more on the positive than there will be less negative. the negative will counter off the positive and everything would be alright. letting go angry and being peaceful will help my life.

DAY 2
The struggle is really killing me inside. My mind is moving left to right every second. I can only be me and I will not change for anyone. I feel like .
That ball hatered is still building. Sometimes i think why I am I targeted amongust others. Every day I just feel like choking these people. It like im trapped and i can't escape.
DAY 1
Today I was tempted, students teamates and teachers are frustrating me. Everyday I have to restrain myself. My angry is taking over my body. No one believes in me or my ablilities. Day by day I strive to prove them wrong. If I don't prove them wrong than it's me proving them right, so I will continue to work hard.
Sometimes i wonder why I my goal set are aside becuase of the ignorance i let corrupt my mind. is it my fault that things don't go everyones way?. Why should i be blamed on others doings. having angry will hurt all the oppurtunities that come to me in life.me tolerating these is build a enormous ball of hatered in my heart.
