This is one of the things that I am diligently working on. I have made a concerted effort to think before I speak. I sometimes speak to quickly and it comes back to haunt me later on so I am really working on that.
Yes, I once yelled at my grandpa and I still feel so bad about it. I apologized over and over again for yelling (He did however lose DH, my fiance at the time... in an international airport) However, I shouldn't have lost my temper. Grandpa is dead now and if it wasn't for that day we would have had a spotless fight free relationship.
The only things I regret saying are things I said while gorwing up to my grandparents, they are both gone now and I wish I oculd go back and take the bad thinsg I said back..
It was hard being a teenager...
This is an ongoing "challenge" for me. I really try to think before I speak, but I do blow it and have to appologize. I've learned to warn everyone in my family when "that time of the month" arrives and spend more time alone then so I don't blow it.
