I experienced, this very morning, unfortunate thoughts of impatience as I watched from 20 cars back as a large semi truck cut in front of three lanes of traffic immediately before a busy intersection.  I say "unfortunate," because I had already been thinking of the purpose of this site immediately prior to those negative and impatient thoughts.   Thankfully, not long after the truck got through the traffic (and I got through the intersection), I realized that I had been looking at it from the very perspective I was trying to avoid with this website.   Shame on me!  So, I changed perspectives and lo and behold, I was able to see and appreciate the patience of those three drivers who courteously stopped and provided a gap for the driver of this huge truck, who without this kindness, would have had to wait for many more minutes than I had to.   I'm usually a polite driver as well, but sometimes when I get in a hurry, my manners slink into hiding.  This was a gentle reminder that kindness is all around us, even when we're not the ones exhibiting it.  God bless those patient drivers this morning.
