The ride of my life

I get restless in my job and at my home especially in the summer. So I drive. Not to any particular destination but just to drive. Not having air conditioning makes driving in the cool of the evening the best option. But there is a magical transformation that takes place in my car when I drive.
I can go from being lonely and sad, or stressed and depressed to feeling alive and independant and strong. Its like in a small way I am deciding something in my life, something of little consequence like which direction I will take a particular road, but it makes me feel like I am doing something important.
I guess all around me there are just too many options and I am afraid where one direction will take me, or maybe I just don't know where I am going to end up. Many of my decisions are made for me based on my environment and circumstances. But when I get in my car to drive I go on the roads and realize that it doesn't matter if I don't know where I am going, it doesn't matter if I am lost because I am not trying to get anywhere, I am just enjoying the ride.
