I’ve driving many a time alone a few times for a couple of days at a time. I can’t really say I liked it because I didn’t. I would rather have someone traveling with me, if for nothing else the companionship.
Driving alone you do a lot of day dreaming and thinking. You reflect on your past and sometimes get very depressed with all the regrets. We all wish we would have done or handled a few things in our life a little different than what we did. But if you had would you be in the same spot as you are today. I mean if it was an old girlfriend you broke up with and you could change it and didn’t break up with them, how much would your life have changed. It’s like going left when you should have when right, but by going left you found the love of your life. So that one change in direction, even for a moment, could change the entire direction of your life. You’ll never know if it’s better or worse.
Those are the kinds of thought I use to have driving alone… but then I realized that I’m very happy with my life and where I’m at. I don’t want to change anything, so those regrets in my life are not really regrets. So when you’re watching the “Butterfly Effects” think about that. In the movie these people go back and one of them kills a small butterfly. That cause a change in the entire history, which of course changes the entire present.
What I’m saying is I no longer have any regrets…
