honky kind of love

One thing we've noticed since arriving in South Florida is everywhere you go, you hear honking. I've seen a person at a red light ready to make a right hand turn and the people behind them just laying on the horn as one by one they swerved around them to make the same right hand turn during the same red light. Obviously the person in front was not comfortable with making the turn.

When sitting at a red light, there is always someone a couple cars back just waiting for the instant the light turns green so they can honk. I don't know if it's some sort of joke or if people are truley that impatient.

I'm not sure if this practice can ever be curbed, but, I was considering honking at randum people and waving. This seemed to always be a sorce of fun when we were kids and might be a little shock to people to see some goofy middle aged guy honking and waving with a smile as opposed to the middle finger shooting in their direction. Friendliness is not somthing people expect and it would be interesting to find out how they react when faced with it.

So, what do you find rude and what are some ways you can counter-act the impatient and selfish actions of others? And, how can we do it in such a way that it points to God?

  1. Put a sign on your car that says, "honk if you love God". :-)
