A replacement for road rage: Tech Rage


I mentioned in an earlier post that some scriptures are hard for me to understand immediately if they're too symbolic or too generalized, so I try to think of what they would mean with respect to my daily life. One example I hear a lot of people following this same process is saying that one thing they need to clear from their lives is road rage. This isn't a good example for me. I almost never get angry because of cars around me.

So a good example of something that makes me feel the way I don't want to: tech rage. If my computer doesn't work just right, I want to through it off a cliff. I think this has to do with the scriptures.

"Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth." Matt 5:5

"Except ye be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven. Whosoever therefore shall humble himself as this little child, the same is greatest in the kingdom of heaven." Matt 18:3-4
