That is true...we forget, the extreme anger fades as quickly as it comes, and we move on. We rarely hold grudges, at least for short term offenses. We get angry, we blow (much harder than most) and we go on. The problem is, others don't understand even if you understand yourself and explain it to them. I have lost at least two friends due to my explosive anger. I did it one time too many to them and they decided it just wasn't worth it anymore...and then you're there, never completely understanding why you've been abandoned or left, the biggest thing that you didn't want to do.

One advantage is that it is kinda good when it comes to chidren. They are easier to understand and explain this to...mom/dad sometimes gets mad really fast but will get over it quickly and they still love you. Children can sometimes get it, it seems adults rarely do.
