When I was 18 my older brother tried to kill me, by strangulation. It's only due to the good fortune that my father was present that I survived; if he had not been then it is certain that I would be dead now.
Well, that was nearly 25 years ago now. I can honestly say that it doesn't affect me any more to any degree. Almost all of my anger/rage has gone. I no longer want revenge.
Of course, 25 years is a long time...
