Regardless of my good
intentions I seem to stay on the merry go round of the same routine, the same
issues and the same responses. The rude driver still elicits irritation and a
sense of self righteous affliction. How dare he/she insinuate I am a slow,
incompetent driver. And let’s not forget the Slow Sally going ten miles or more
under the speed limit. I am ashamed to admit I become the rude driver and
barrel around them, just to prove my point. Why?
Add an issue at work and
the merry go round gains speed and I find myself locked in place by centrifugal
force.
I tried using mediation CD's
during my commute, soothing music or nature sounds. It sort of worked. What would work is a change of
attitude, a change in my thought patterns. Nothing new there, yet why is it so
hard to implement and then stick to it? I found the answer in my devotions. No
surprise there.
