I-880 is a prison, unlike 280, 580, or even 101, it is packed with CHiP, and mean miserable drivers.
Once in a while you see a decent human being letting folks merge. Then the a* hole behind her will get impatient and start some 300 credit score behavior like tail gating.
More often than not, we allow our mental state to be ruined by the few a* holes.
If you allow yourself to be upset about something someone inadvertently did years ago, and allow your mind to ignore all the wonderful things that had happened since then, you will never find peace.
I had a major debate in college with my professor who insisted the pain of the holocast the Jewish people suffered must be shared with as wide an audience as possible.
I said, isn't the Nazi's action causing enough harm? Are we not amplifiying their evil by refusing to move on and live in the peace so many had died to earn for us?
The argument is if we don't constantly remind ourselves of this evil it will inevitably come again to haunt us.
Still, I firmly believe in order to minimize suffering we should accentuate the positive whenever we can. If happiness is the ultimate goal. Some seek revenage because they feel there ought to be cosmic justice. They are driven by hate until some sort of resolution is achieved. I offer this grim reality, it is trivial for an individual to cause so much harm that it is in fact impossible for any justice to be served to them. Eye for an eye works if the poker does two or less on others. By the third eye the perp wins.
