Just the Road and Me

I was never in a rush to get my driver's liscence, I was scared of driving actually, but now 5 years later I have actually learned to love driving. I drive about 40 to 50 miles everyday, going to school, work, and back home. Driving has become an escape, it is the most relaxing time of day for me. Even when I am sitting in traffic, I still enjoy it. The sunny days, the windows down, the breeze flowing through my car, and my music playing through the stereo, it just makes me happy. There are days when I just want to drive and drive and drive, with no specific destination in mind, just drive until my heart is content. The road has become an escape, I used to hate driving, but now it has become this place of zen. It's not hard when I have the beautiful San Diego as my backdrop, it's hard not to smile when the sun is shining and reflecting off the ocean and the buildings of downtown San Diego.
