One of my friends often wonders why I never drive in the car pool lane when he is riding with me. Although there are a variety of reasons, I think it just makes me feel uncomfortable. After many years of being alone, it feels a bit unsettling to have the ability to be in the car pool lane. I'm also just not used to driving on that side of the freeway. It just doesn't seem normal.
The car pool lane is an interesting concept. In order to enter, you need an additional person in the car. In many cases, this lane might not be too much faster than any of the other lanes in heavy traffic. Life in the fast lane really isn't always the best thing. When I'm with my friends, I like to think it's all about the journey. Why does everyone want to go faster in order to end the journey sooner?
I prefer life in the slow lane. I'm going to enjoy the ride.
See ya.
