POWER! Who Has It?

At some point or another, in life, everyone's anger gets the best of them. You may yell and scream or cuss (not curse LOL) someone out but do you ever really let it go?  I raise the question because of the last few episodes of Basketball Wives.
In my opinion, Jennifer has control over Evelyn.  Jennifer's presence in the room, alone, can instantly change Evelyn's demeanor.  It caused me to question myself.  Is there anyone in this world who I can't stand to be around? Someone that I have so much disdain for that I would jump across a table to attack them?  My answer, no.  Honestly, if a woman or man has a problem with me but has not expressed that problem to me, then that's a personal problem, as far as I'm concerned, and so it does not concern me. Ya feel me?  
In the event that I do get into an argument, I am straightforward. I tell you exactly how I feel in the least disrespectful but honest way I can, so that I can move on with a clear conscience.  I often find I'm riding solo in that regard, because not many people I know can/have truly let things go when they say they have.  You give the usual responses, "aight then, I'm good." or "We're Good." when you really aren't.  So ask yourself, are you leaving other people the opportunity to have power over you because you won't let go of the past? Is it worth it to be forced to isolate yourself from some of your friends or family because you can't or won't control your own emotions?  You can't control what others do but you can control YOU.
