People suit their star sign. If someone is annoying me over and over, and I know they're a Sagittarius, say, I'm more likely to forgive them. It comes down to my need for structure as a way of finding my bearings with people.

Throughout my lean phases, Dad was like a solid rock, supporting me, whether it was work, or my jail term.
