We all have a good side and a bad side. We tend to show the good and hide the bad, especially in a begining of a relationship, to win the other side over. But when reality kicks in, the bad side, voluntarily or involuntarily, appears. We show are fangs, let loose our snakes and inject poison. And we become different persons altogther. My question IS, Do you know yourself? Have you ever faced your demons? What dominates you, the good side or the bad? Have you ever been FORCED to show your bad side? Tell us, let's share. I know myself better now. Anger, jealousy and revenge was my darksid.

Yes of course we all have good sides and bad sides...because where human..balanced with these too sides... But me... i never let myself be dominated by my bad sides...nor my good sides... I balance it depending the situation... Im the type of person who have a soft heart with people i love...I guess that a good side of me... but when my daughter wanted something that i think at her age she should not have... with pain in my heart i choose to let her down... And with my bad sides... when i learned that my husband is having an affair with another woman instead of letting anger dominate me... i choose to be calm and talk to him as matured people should do... yiu see we were wrap with this two different sides...but its always our choice of when we will use it...

Thank you for responding... It's very hard to admit to one's fault. Again, it's even harder to acknowledge and knowing we even have a dark side. In addition, its most difficult to control yourself when anger strikes.
