Bona fide hate

I just realized that I almost spent my entire drive to work seething. If I had a super power and it was laser beam eyes...I would have used them. It absolutely IRKS me that 2 cars in different lanes can be driving the EXACT same speed limit. And, you know, it doesn't matter how fast they are going...The issue that eats at me is their obliviousness to others. In my righteous anger (an impossibility for me - I'm sure I've had a post about that at some point) I would split their cars down the middle with my laser beam eyes - and, in my mind, as they were sitting on the side of the road - due to the fact that they wouldn't have understood anything that happened because of their complete disregard for their surroundings - would sit bumfuzzled at their status. They would have not had a clue that it was me, because basically, nobody else exists but them, right? They would be wondering, "Why am I not moving? Has something changed?"
- Yeah, I was that fuming mad. 

Notice - I said almost...I almost spent my entire drive to work seething...You know, I've noticed that people get angry the most at what they are blinded to that occurs in their own lives. Shortcomings of their own displayed in other folks. I quickly looked around to make sure I wasn't blocking traffic. Then, I started thinking that maybe it's not only holding people up in traffic where I am being oblivious to others. I think the Holy Spirit was thinking, "Finally...he's heard something I said." Things started pouring in... a. lot. of. things. 

I hate that the theory still holds true about being blinded and having the same flaws that you are disgusted by the most. Cuz I have been feeling a lot of disgust and frustration lately. I think God may be doing an overhaul on me.

What makes you mad/disgusted/hateful?
