SURRENDERED TO THE ROAD

"The car has become a secular sanctuary for the individual... (a) mobile Walden Pond."
~ Edward McDonagh ~

If I don't resist it, driving can be soothing. It's the movement of my position by rolling wheels from one place to another, and the freedom of choice whether I listen to music or sit in silence, allow or disallow fresh air in through the windows, and how I adjust the seat heat and AC. It's a place of peace if I let it be that, and if I am able to surrender to the traffic and the rumbling road.

My car is my personal domain.
