Cross-Country Trip – That’s A Bit Difficult.

You’re going on a cross-country trip. Airplane, train, bus, car, or bike?

I love to travel. I’m inspired by new places and adventures. However, I am impatient. If there is a specific destination – well, I want to get there as soon as possible. So, airplane would be my choice. That way I can be there and enjoy the experience as long as possible.

Although, if the journey was the destination; then car is my choice. Obviously, driving I could control when and where I stop. There are so many interesting things along a drive that I just pass by because I’m so focused on getting to a certain place. I just wonder how many treasures I’ve missed along the way.

This brings to mind how we all go about in our lives. We are always in such a rush. We hurry to get somewhere and then hurry to leave. One day we will look up and realize life has past us by and we won’t remember what transpired along our journey. Slow down – enjoy a sunset, a weeping willow swaying in the breeze, or a babbling brook. There is a world of adventure for us to enjoy.
