I got it the other day.

Comeuppance.

I tried to beat traffic, too impatient,

Too many cars dragging on the highway, pace not a bit to my liking.

“I’ll try surface streets, an alternate route,” I thought, and zipped off the next exit…

Turns out that wasn’t the best idea.

Comeuppance.

The pace and the all the traffic lights on my so-called “short cut” slowed me down a bit more — maybe a lot more ! — than that “dragging traffic” I was trying to beat on the highway.

When I finally pulled into my driveway I thought, “Well, I guess I got my comeuppance right there…”

Real talk, it was a good lesson on patience, regardless of route taken,

GOOD.
