road rage .
I can really relate to page 17 bottom of page in the early part of my life; I guess I was very much an angry young man. Many things upset me and the little things seemed worse. Traffic jams seemed to push me over the edge. They didn't have a term for it back then, but it was definitely road rage.
I would go into these fits of rage totally out of control, mentally, spiritually and physically. I know now that this was a symptom of my disease of addiction. What a way to start your whole day off on a negative role! this negativity would immediately start me looking for ways to escape my mental dilemma. Then the obsession for something better or different began. And when drugs came along, what a vehicle for escape.
A lot of times I hve thought to myself if I could only get this or that, things would be different for me. But every time I got those things that I thought would change my life. I soon realized although I had them, I was still stuck with me.
So, now I know the change must come from within myself. And this is only possible with God's help.
