I Drove
Thursday May 17, 2007 | 0 comments
The plan was to wake up semi-early and go for a run. But I had to scratch that after I was called in for a job interview. I knew this day would come, but I wasn’t prepared for it—the day I would drive up and down I-75. All by myself. This time I didn’t get scared or intimidated by the big ol’ bully that is city traffic (unlike that other, quite un-glorious time when I ran away crying). I was a big girl.
If you know me, you know that driving is one of those things I really don’t care for. Especially in a city with five million people. However, today I discovered that nothing gets me closer to God than this very thing. It was probably the best prayer time I’ve had in a while. I suppose I should do more driving, keep myself on the edge and in check.
While leaning forward as far as possible in the driver’s seat and holding onto the wheel for dear life, I did manage to notice the gorgeous weather: a perfect mixture of sunshine, breeze, and crispy dry air. With the drive through this city and a job interview now behind me, I feel strangely grown-up. I also finally feel like I am going to make it. But more on that later…
