Sometimes we temporarily forget that we choose our behavior and reactions.
Sometimes I need to have a little talk to myself to get back on the right track.

Yep... nobody "MAKES'' us mad. We decide to be mad- and go from there.
I do not like to think we CONTROL our moods and attitudes- suggests to my mind a continual struggle with self.
I believe we DIRECT our moods and attitudes. We give energy to them or let them fade.... as we choose.
