8 Thoughts You Have When You Drive Alone

In This Article:

While driving home, a three and a half hour drive, I was trying to entertain myself and keep myself awake. Here are some things that went through my mind!

1. "How much longer?"

Somehow a 3 hour car drive, feels like a million years.

2. " How am I already going 90 mph?"

Speed limit is 25 mph? Means I am going 40mph. Speed limit 70 mph? Means I am going 90 mph! Whoops.

3. "Why is it only commercials?"

Let me be honest, I am not listening to your radio station to hear you talk about whatever it is today that you want to talk about.

4. "I wonder if anyone can see/hear me dancing and singing to these '90s songs."

But on the other hand, who cares.

5. * Looks in rear view mirror * " PLEASE DON'T HIT ME"

I swear I somehow attract terrible drivers.

6. "I am a pretty good driver."

Gold star for me!!!

7. *Turns on WAZES app * "HA HA HA, not today cops!"

I swear to the higher power, that this app is the only reason I have never gotten a ticket.

8. "If my parents were in the car, I would not have gotten here so quickly!"

I would definitely be a grandma on the road, if my parents were still in the car with me.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
