Angry People
Maybe It's just me, but do people seem angrier than they used to be? Last weekend I experienced my first case of road rage as a driver stopped his car at the traffic lights, got out of his car and looking very worked-up, proceeded to tell me that I should "learn some common-decency". I was a little shaken-up. Firstly becuase I was quite afraid he was going to punch me in the face through the open window, and secondly because I thought I was a considerate person and it hurts to be told otherwise. Then, again tonight I witnessed an irate driver get out of his car at a red light and yell at a car full of people with a "P"-plate driver at the wheel. Maybe it's the time of year, financial troubles perhaps? or the need of a holiday but I've just seen some angry people lately. Was it always like this? Or did I just not see it as a child? I hope these people have partners they can find comfort and support in, someone to reassure them and help them deal with their frustrations and concerns.
