Gentle and Irritated

I know that these are two things I need to work on. My lack of gentleness and how easily irritated I can become.

I am not gentle. I do not know how to coddle or coo over someone when they are having a hard time. I do not know how to not be blunt, forward, and aggressive in my actions and the way that I think. I am a strong hitter, I don't take pity, and I am not easy. I tend to be aggressive, and while I don't mean to step on people's boundaries, I know that I do it.

I become easily agitated. Not when things are directed at me, but when people do things that I think are stupid, emotionally, illogical, or idiotic. I can't stand people who don't think. They annoy and irritate me. Now, I know this isn't about me, and I know that it is not worth getting worked up about. But I still do.

So these are the two things I need to work on right now. I have decided to stop being irritable, and I have decided to be more gentle. We will see how this goes.
