Driving.

Driving is a skill that many people have.

It connects people and takes them to new places.

I find it very mellow and relaxing to do a three-hour drive. With the windows down and the music at a medium volume. I find the solace and comfort of listening to my own music very peaceful.

I would say most of the time I enjoy driving.

Driving can be a living hell.

I have driven many times for over 10 hours straight to reach a destination. These trips have been to worthwhile destinations and allowed me to make lasting memories.

However, the physical drive is a nightmare.

I have driven these trips in tip-top shape, and I have driven while in awful shape (3 hours of sleep and a hangover). They are awful every time.

I do not regret these drives though, and I will most certainly face this journey again.
