not kerouac, but On the road



i found this image on google, when i searched florida highways on the third page.

i don't know why, but i've always seen the open road as one of the most liberating things there is. just the thought of being in control of the wheel, on a ribbon of pavement in a sea of cars, yet still having the feeling of isolation; it's amazing. It feels almost religious to me. I read something the other day about "elevation" being a new emotion; i think that perfectly describes how i feel being on an open road, it gives me chills sometimes.
ironically enough, i've recently come to the conclusion that i dislike driving, but i still look forward to that thrill of being on the open road.

Elevation.

this song me of that feeling, always.
