but at the end is the HUGE Irish temper bomb.

Why don't they have Holiday cards that say, "I love you even if you do treat me like crap."

A priest once told me something that helped me let go.
"No one wakes up in the morning thinking 'How can I be a real a**hole today?' Because whatever they do, they 'think' it's the best they have to give at the moment or they are focused on their problems and not thinking at all."

There is a holiday vid from Dropkick Murphy's (Murphy is part of my Irish side)
I could NOT watch the "reaction video" because the dysfunction was so off the charts it hurt my soul.
Some people might think it's funny.

BUT MOST of US don't have THIS level of CRAZY in our lives, so at least I feel blessed for that.
