Chapter One: All About Joshua
On December 18th, 2005, I was born into the world. When I was little, I was a mess, but developed into a thoughtful, independent person from learning by mistakes. I’m glad to see the progress I’ve made throughout the years. In the mysterious future, many adventures await my arrival. All the way back in preschool, I was hyperactive, impulsive, and uncaring.

It seemed as though everywhere I went, I would always get angry for reasons that didn’t make sense. Furthermore, at home I would make poor decisions. For example, whenever I got angry at the after school care I was at, I’d come home angry and yell at my parents. After I was done yelling, I would also make loud noises to annoy my family, before they talked to me about how rude and I was.

    This is only one of many times I’ve had to keep my cool and stay strong. As well as this , I’ve always struggled with my own anger issues.

  • Following Wood's Principle In Which We Address Misunderstandings?

    I can clearly say that my I’ve reconstructed my family’s script into my own, though still trying to respect my elders but not holding back on anything else.

As Wood stated, that there are many ways to address a misunderstanding or conflict, the best representation of how I address most of my misunderstanding is by overtly. I feel that although my parents try their best in raising us to obtain etiquette behaviors, they lack the idea that maybe arguing in front of us isn’t the brightest thing.
