Resonance Of Realization |

There you were again this morning in your normal hurry up and wait mode. I've studied that face so many times until now when it finally seems that the look of disgust I see has become a part of a regular routine that resides in your morning ritual to face the approaching day. I couldn't help but wonder to myself if anyone has ever told you that you don't really wear your aggression well. It certainly seems to be a suit that doesn't suit you..... I can see that strangle hold of thought crossing your mind and the tap....tap....tap begins steadily rising into the constant drumming of rage pounding. Eyes begin darting, back and forth in search for a way.... any way..... to get out, to continue without ever having to break stride in your ordinary mundane ways of habit, but today there is no escape no where to go You explode into desperation as you seek satisfaction and your focus becomes disabled {distractions overpowering concentration} when suddenly is heard the sound of your wake up call as it resonants through the morning air and realization hits you like the Mack truck that you didn't see while you were to busy trying to get nowhere fast. Tomorrow the sun will rise and bring with it another day... it's a shame that you let your road rage get in the way..... It's better than I could have planned.. it's made me who I am... {Trace Adkins} [This message has been edited by Gentle Spirit (11-07-2003 10:17 AM).] |

anger is something we all have to deal with, whether from within ourselves, others and/or both...it is not a nice way to look at things. exceptional write... |

It's so difficult dealing with those who lash out for reasons unknown to us - we truly have no glimpse as to what's pulling their own chains... we can only pray we don't react in kind. |

I was observing some of the expressions on the faces of other drivers on the highway this morning and their actions and I thought that it is no wonder there are so many accidents when people get so caught up in themselves that they don't pay enough of attention to the roads thus resulting in accidents (and this poem..lol) thanks to all. It's better than I could have planned.. |

Dixie I myself have little patience when it comes to being stuck in SLOW traffic but instead of getting mad I just watch everyone else gettin mad while I'm chillin... works much better and is much safer. Hugs doll! |

(big hugggssssssss) Oh Donna, this is so very tragic but true, sweet friend, it hurts me deeply to see too many set their lives around road rage, as I find that the anger in road rage becomes linked to ones own life and out of it one becomes a zombie! (sad sigh) I know this feeling ever so much, sweet friend, I pray all drivers can just calm down, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Donna, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton I don't need no proof when it comes to God and truth |

I think Noah's graphics suits this well.... Perspectives....too many of us are totally spoiled and have no sense of reality... Imagine when there were no cars, sad.... the horses caught the fury then... Excellent write Donna, very well put.. |
