I was a road rage cowboy. I loved riding the trail looking for good victims to level my rage at. I would chase them all the way home if I had to.
This went on for years even though I told my self that I was sick and that this was poisoning me and the rest of my life. One day another cowboy tried to cut me off but I would not allow him in. He got so outraged that he chased me and tried to ram me.
As I escaped I was shaking and sensed that he would have killed me if he caught me. I wondered, how many people had I terrorized in this same way. Since then I have been a meek and mild trail rider looking for people in distress that I could help. Fear...what a great remedy for rage.

Thanks for your story, Dimmer. You get straight to the heart of the matter here. Seeing yourself in the other person's (road rager's) position is a sure-fire leveler, if not a cure.
