Nov 21 – Day 21
I commute just about 18 miles each way to work which
during rush hour takes about 40 minutes each way. Having grown up in the Los
Angeles area I know this is nothing. And I really don’t mind the commute at all
except when I stay in the area after work to do something and then it seems to
take forever.
Some days I’m on remote control and get to a certain
point in my drive and wonder how I got there but most days I’m fully aware and
actually enjoying the drive. On those days I see so much. Amazing, breathtaking
views of the various mountain ranges that surround me, public art that makes me
smile, car vanity plates that I try to decipher, and people all around me in
their cars, at bus stops, on bikes and walking on the street. I especially love
to catch someone in my rearview mirror belting out a song with their windows
up. That’s when I have to laugh because I
now know what I look like when doing the same and am thankful for dark tinted
windows!
I’m actually thankful for my commute even though it would
be a real gas saver to live closer to work. But then I’d miss so much!
