The Drive

The best way to unwind myself is to go for a drive. The raw power of the engine, under  my hands, gives me the feeling of control. But where is the road to run the car in todays world. I did try to go out today, but as frustrating the days beginning was the day was also so. I set out but was caught in the jams. The car could never gather the speed. The chugging along was so agonizing that i was literally banging on the steering of the car. At last a hour later, hungry and tired i landed up in McDonald. Here i was looking to be alone, and as i sat there thinking, i saw an acquaintance. Where has the world come to now a days, even a hundred kilometers out of the city, i end up finding some one.
Hello's said, the very first question was. How come alone? Can't a guy drive out alone. Can't a guy with a family be alone? Anyways I said, i just wanted to have a drive and to be alone, so i am here. Very undiplomatic. But i was in such a mood, thats when i felt that is what that separates the men from the boys. I still had to learn to get over my feelings, and behave in a manner that is expected. I was here out to be alone, and here the unloading began ... anyways i did escape from there, but decided i head back to the city. It was again too much of a traffic.
As i end this day, its not that happy ending, but still i have a hope. Some days are tough but then its life.
