I just don't like it!
There was a time when I could leave my house at 6:00 in the morning and meet just a few cars on the road. Everybody has discovered the secret to driving peace and the roadways are now filled with travelers in a mad attempt to avoid gridlock. I don't like it one bit. The days when I could enjoy smooth lane transitions are gone. Those early morning travels prepared me for a peaceful day of thinking, learning, and working with grace. This saved my co-workers and friends from a person I hope they'll never get to know in this life. I'll adjust to this change, I know, but in the meantime I don't like it one bit.

you're right about what happens before you get to work sets the tone for the rest of they day. maybe you get late, your kids are a hassle, traffic is bad, you spill your coffee, etc. maybe a combination of the above! the age old question of will we master our emotions or let our emotions master us certainly gets called into questions.
ReplyDeleteMy mornings all come done to coffe. If I get coffee, I am functional. If I don't, well, like Jeri said, I hope ya'll never meet that person :)
ReplyDeleteI , too, have road issues. I drove for two years on I-10 passing cute construction workers, flying debris, and trucks everywhere.when it was under construction. Now, since driving Chidera to Lovett--I haven't benefited from the beautiful roadway I-10 has become.
ReplyDeleteI must say the Meyerland/Bellaire area has always been one the scenic neighborhoods I enjoy driving through.
