On a day like today - Write Over the Weekend (WOW)
People come into our lives for a
reason, a season or a life time. Today I met one who has left me still
wondering.
It started with the driver behind
me blinding me with his headlights, now when you drive with your mirrors if the
driver uses the high beam behind it can be very disorienting. So unable to
drive I pulled over and flagged the car behind with a polite request to dim the
lights. That started of the ugliest 10 minutes in recent times with a stream of
profanities, when I refused to back down as I am large and my size can be
intimidating the man attempted to run me down with his car, fortunately he was restrained by his co-passenger. The
inevitable good Samaritans materialized out of nowhere ostensibly with the
intention of resolving the fight but with the motive of clearing the road so
they could drive on.
When the entire scene seemed pointless
I simply moved aside and let the idiot pass so that he can make the life of
some body else miserable.
So to come back to the opening
line, this man taught me in no certain terms that sometimes actions speak
louder and are more effective than words.
P.S. This is a true incident and the car is the one in the picture
