Road rage | The Daily Vulnerable

By Daniel P Road rage happens for two reasons (mainly), I think: Driving vehicles is dangerous, and Driver interactions are impersonal When someone cuts us off in the grocery store with their shopping cart, it’s annoying, but not that upsetting.

I remembered a lesson recently. It is that what you’re trying to run from will probably come with you. The things you run from will even find you in your dreams. You can’t escape the unconscious mind. We can escape certain people and certain circumstances, but we can’t escape ourselves. Make sure it’s not you... Read More
