Even though I've held several key positions

in the community, in non-profit organization, and marriage,

I was never able to maintain those positions because

when something didn't go the way I wanted, I became angry.

And people didn't want to have me around.

I may have initially got involved in certain activities,

that good side always came out of me initially,

but once I got involved in certain community activities

or in relationships and things didn't go the way I expect

them to go, then this Tasmanian Devil came out of me.

And I became angry and rebellious.
