Driving on the wrong side of the road!

If you are driving down the road, and you see a car on the wrong side of the road headed directly for you, will it help to start worrying about it? Will it help if you start complaining about it? Is there anything you can do to make the person drive on the right side of the road? Obviously the answer is no. Counter measures or evasive action are a couple of your choices. Nothing you can do is going to change the fact that person is driving on the wrong side of the road! In life, often times we worry about things, and try to change other people. Really, that's no different than the illustration above. Are you dealing with a person that is driving on the wrong side of the road? If so, instead of trying to correct what they are doing, or worrying about it, keep in mind they are the only ones that can make that decision to get back on the right side of the road! All you can do is respond to what they are doing by either taking counter measures, or focusing on being a good example. Many people get frustrated and worry about spouses, friends, and family that are on the wrong path. Realize after you have voiced your concern about them being on the wrong path, that you cannot make them drive on the right side of the road, they have to make that decision! Maybe if that person sees you driving on the right side of the road more frequently, they will follow suit!
