So I heard the grass is
about ready to be

cut again huh?

- Yep it grows quick,
it's been raining so much.

[Boggess] I really
enjoy being around people,

but the therapy is
what helped me

get to where I'm at.

- [Man in hat]
...if you can't cut it

then it gets
even longer so...

- [Boggess] I accept
people, I accept them.

After Vietnam, when
things went wrong

for something

that was stupid.

I could tolerate a mistake,

but when people did
stupid things

I went off.

Physically I didn't
abuse anyone.

But I just didn't
know if there was

a point beyond.

I didn't know what to do,

I was really
scared of myself.

It's so much better
in the fact

that I just tolerate
things, I just

brush them off, I
just let them go.

- ...salmon

- Yep, the six ounce.

- The six ounce?

[Boggess] And I attribute a
lot of that to

the therapy that I went
through because

it was just making me
understand the fact

that people weren't doing
these things against me.

- I don't forget
about the bread.

[Boggess] Now basically
I feel a lot better

about people and a thing
that I know is

people feel a lot
better about me.

- Well you know,
he helps me out.

[Boggess] I'm a
human being.

I'm a
human being.

I've never been through
anything in life

that's helped me more I
think than this.

I'll just say it this way,
it takes

a lot to piss me off.

It takes a lot.
