Straight Lines

Whenever I'm driving I get frustrated with the cars who feel the need to pass me despite the fact that I'm already going (or maybe even slightly exceeding) the speed limit. We get it, your car is fast. What are you always in such a hurry for? What is it that's worth risking a speeding ticket for? Slow down.

People are always in such a hurry to get from point A to B. They become so obsessed with the destination that they forget what's in between. Well what's in between is life and no one seems to slow down and enjoy that anymore. Everyone says they just want to be done with high school. Everyone wants to go to college. Well what are you gonna do when you're sick of college? What about when you're sick of your job? Eventually we get sick of life.

So slow down. Take your eyes off of the destination and look at what's around you. You may find that you've made quite a mess of where you are with your neglect and tunnel vision. You may find that there are some sights worth seeing along the way. You may find that the countryside is beautiful and you've been missing out.
