It ain't no joke that finding things to take pictures of everyday is a difficult task. Finding things to do everyday is a difficult task. My plans were to hit the beach, but as you might be able to tell its rather cloudy and shortly after this photo was taken it started to rain. Its been raining for the past 3 days and I'm getting rather sick of it. Today I just needed to get out and drive. I've been stuck inside for what seems like years, but in reality its only been a day!
This is the open road. No other cars in sight. Just you and the black top beneath you. The best part about the open road, is the unknown journey and destination. Sure my destination, was ultimately coming back home, but I'm not much of a planner, I'm a doer. If the urge arises in me to go some place on a whim, the thirst will be quenched.
Now this picture doesn't exactly go hand in hand with Thoreau's quote, but in some ways it does. Pursue some path...no matter what that path is, or what it looks like, or how you manage to manuever down that path, but take it and let it guide you. Take the path that calls to you. The road you can walk down with love for what you are doing and love for the people who are walking that road with you. The open road is endless. The options are few. The journey is an adventure. Let it guide you. But turn off every now and then for a chance at something new and different. That right turn may be the answer you've been looking for or it might be all wrong. But how will you know if you don't take that risk? That turn might tell you to do a u-turn and get back on the right road for you. But no matter, listen to it and follow it, however difficult it may be and enjoy the journey!
Peace&Love
