i took a road trip to heaven, if only in my mind
i just got home from a drive.
i took 309 up to allentown and back. it's about 45 minutes each way. there was no particular reason for me to drive there -- it's just a gorgeous day, and i felt like taking advantage of it.
i love being on the road. cranking up the music and singing as loud as i can. i love speeding...65..75...80 miles per hour.
i love road tripping.
(except spring break junior year, when i went to daytona with 7 other people)
i felt so free. it made me so relaxed to have the freedom to be able to drive like this. go ahead, mer. take an hour and a half out of your day and just GO.
why can't we feel like that forever? why can't everything just be speed and wind and music and love?
i wish that i could accurately describe the feeling that i had. i wasn't worried. just content. moments like that are so rare in my life.
maybe i should just spend the rest of my life on the road. a nomad of sorts. maybe then i wouldn't be so sad, everytime that i turned and ran. because it would have been what i had planned in the first place.
but maybe that wouldn't work. i always feel the need for something to grasp onto. keep me rooted, keep me from flying away.
right now, i'm just trying to hold onto that hour and a half of heaven.
