It is easy to want to escape, to get lost. I have lost count how many times while driving to a job at 4:30 AM in the morning that I wondered what would have happened if I kept on driving. I am sure we have all thought of that at one point in our lives. The desire to drive past that exit and not care at all. To keep on driving until you run out of gas, hopefully and conveniently near a gas station so that you’re not stranded in the middle of nowhere. It is there at that stop that you’ll discover something new. You receive a call from your boss asking where you were. You can honestly tell him/her that you have no clue. With that drive, you might be in the middle of nowhere, in the suburbs or the heart of a city. That’s the thrill of not knowing, not purposely planning. What happened to the days when it was fine to just let go and enjoy life without feeling guilty? These are the thoughts that I have as I near my job. What about you? What are your thoughts as you drive somewhere?
