Can we admit we aren't perfect? What is something we could improve on to make our lives better and our relationships happier? I'll admit to being proud and reserved when it comes to expressing my feelings; what about you?

Anyway made this list of my positves and negatives.Decided to work on negatives and imrove positives if I could.Everday over 2 years I look at was started as list,now is pamphlet since I would write goals and times I caught myself in a negative.It's taken time and still a few faults I may never conquer.I am no longer stubborn,seldom pout and a few other changes.Age matters not.You can change if you really want too.

That's great; I think the first step towards change is being honest with ourselves, and wanting to do something about it; making an effort to react differently next time.
I had an excellent relationship with my first wife. We were like peas & carrots, peaches & cream, Forrest & Jenny. We were a match. She left because I got carried away with drinking.
Sadly, I wasn't ready to admit that my drinking was a problem. She had hoped to scare me into straightening up. Instead, I only got worse. I was angry, depressed, and I drank even more. I blew it.
