Driving down the highway, Cruisin to a show.

It's a long way to the top if you wanna rock and roll.

There is nothing like the liberating feeling of jumping in the car and going places. I have always enjoyed riding and driving. Riding is often more convenient because if the mood arises you can always dose off at your own leisure. Unfortunately, requires a little more attention. At least it should. Driving is the bare bones task priority endeavor that we Americans take for granted. It's so easy to jump in the car and get from point A to point B.

I drove for around fourteen hours today. It was honestly pretty cool. Full control of the radio. Tunes blaring classic rock and a little talk radio to balance it out. Drive time is a great opportunity to reflect on both the world around us and where exactly we are headed. It is analogous to life in many ways. We never truly know whats around the next bend or whats over that hill. Nonetheless, we go at it anyway in hopes of getting a little closer to our destination.

Just as important as the destination is the ability to reflect and learn from where exactly we are coming from. Driving away from home is both difficult and liberating. Difficult because every mile is a mile further away from your comfort zone, but liberating because of the fact that each mile gives you a little more of an idea of what is out there in this big old world. The real task is not getting from point A to point B. Instead, it's taking in everything in between.
