Am I a bright light?

So I was driving home tonight from a study. (I guess its technically a book study, but it's really like a Bible study, because I am learning so much about the Lord and being challenged constantly! Pretty much it's an awesome book so far, I'm only 2 chapters in but I recommend it -Radical by David Platt.)
Well, the drive home from my friends house is down these dark back roads that are known for deer.. you may have heard of Garners infamous white deer! Deer+night=bright lights. So I proceed to cut on my brights. As soon as I round a curve BAM! Another car is coming up. So I flick my lights down to normal. I turn my brights back on, and as soon as I come around the next bend there is yet another car coming. First of all I don't know where all these cars are coming from. Second of all, I start to get really annoyed at this pattern. Brights...car...brights...car...brights...car... it never seems to stop. And then the worst of all happens, a car comes along going the opposite way and oh so nicely forgets to flip their brights off, so now I'm driving blindly and seeing spots everywhere.
That got me thinking... Am I like my bright lights? Or I guess it would more accurately am I like me as a driver?
Think about it:
I'm going through life in a world surrounded by sin (like the dark back roads). I'm jamming along to my Christian music with my lights all bright until...a car comes up. I turn my lights down, not to make things easier for me, but to keep the people I come in contact with comfortable. When I turn my lights down I can't magically see like I can with my brights on. It makes it harder for me. Like when I "tone down" my passion for the Lord because I don't want to make someone uncomfortable. I dare say everyone reading this has done that at least once...this week. Then, as soon as that person is gone BAM! It's like nothing happened. The lights flick back on and everything is back to normal. Then the worst of all happens. That car comes up on the other side and doesn't turn their brights down!! They are not afraid of what other people will think, they want to continue to live their life for Christ, even if that makes people (that being me) uncomfortable. Why can't I always be that person who just doesn't care, but wants to live wholly and completely surrendered to the Lord that gave EVERYTHING for me? The past two nights I've heard about how Jesus CHOSE NOT to pass the cup... that cup not being the pain and torture from the Roman soldiers, but that cup being the WRATH of GOD that was meant for you and me. And JESUS took that wrath for ME! Why am I afraid to make people "uncomfortable" if it means a door would be opened to share with them about the Savior I am so passionate about?
So my challenge for me, and for anyone else who reads this, is am I letting my fears and comfort lead me, or am I letting the Lord of all lead me?
