I have a confession to make...

Driving in traffic makes me want to hurl…

It makes me feel like Ivan the Gorilla is sitting on my chest dressed in a string of pearls...

It makes my heart pound like a hard knock on the front door...

Looking on the bright side... while I am driving... I will never be bored...

It makes me feel like I want to run for the hills and never look back…

But like the band Survivor said: I've got the "Eye of the Tiger" so I must stay and attack...

Lyft has become my bestest friend because it keeps me calm…

But someday soon I'll venture out in traffic again armed with FAITH in my palm...

I know in my heart that there will be a day when anxiety will not win…

but until then…

I'll be gripping the steering wheel with a plastic grin…
