    earlier today i was driving on the interstate, in rather heavy traffic.
    i could feel the rage and anger and anxious tension rising up.
    slowly my mind was becoming consumed by these thoughts and emotions.

    then i wrested control away from the situation,
    and took ahold (symbolically) of the rage and anger,
    and chucked it (symbolically) out the window.

    and INSTANTLY, i felt better.
    suddenly, i was in control of my thoughts again,
    and the traffic conditions had no effect on me.

    i had made my mental processes tangible,
    and gained that measure of control over them.
    it made the day go so well :)

    I am generally able to do the same, throw the road rage out the window, except for in Manhattan - if you don't assume full road rage mentality before entering that city, you are DONE for.

    I think it's a good idea... being able to through that rage out the window physically and metaphorically... how empowering....
