And if life was a car ride I'd be travelling at 120mph right now.
Did you know that I think the car is the ultimate metaphor for life?
Don't laugh- it really is true.
Think about it.
You have to be in the driver seat if you want to get anywhere.
You can see where you are headed (your future), but only a fixed distance. And ANYTHING could happen at ANYTIME.
You need to be aware of what's behind you, but if you spend too much time looking in the rear-view mirror( your past) you'll crash.
You have to be a defensive driver, but you still can help traffic (the world) flow more smoothly by letting people in when you have the chance(being kind/courteous). Sometimes you get stuck. You run out of fuel.
Sometimes you want to speed. (Sometimes you NEED to speed!)
Once in awhile you want to just stop and rest.
and...the ride is much more fun when you bring others along.(sing to the radio too!)
ok. modern-day socrates over here. i'm done.
