Life as a ride…
We read and hear that by reading and traveling we gain a well rounded view of the world and our surroundings. I would add to this the very important views of the people that surround us in every step of our life.
We could see life as a taxi ride, where we are the drivers and we host various people in our cab. We drive them around to the destinations of their choice but most often that not we choose the route.
Through my travels I have seen some crazy taxi drivers… I guess it makes for an interesting ride. In my trip to Sofia for instance I rode in a very small Suzuki driven by a mad professor look alike. I have been taken to a meeting by a singing driver, singing in English no less, 80’s love songs. One thing that most of these taxi drivers had in common was Julio Iglesias. Seconds after I would get in the car almost all of them will change the music to Julio Iglesias and since I couldn’t communicate with them I never uncovered this mystery. I will have to remember it for my next trip to Sofia, until then I will simply label them as romantic souls.
Speaking of romantic souls, I got an email the other day from a good friend of mine. She is to be a Maid of Honor this weekend to the wedding of her best friend. First I would like to congratulate the happy couple which I had the honor to meet during their visit to Amsterdam and secondly to thank my romantic friend for thinking that a quote I had shared with her not too long ago was appropriate to make it to her speech. I was really touched and surprised. She has a very good memory!
Happy Journeys…
Note… in case you are wondering what kind of a taxi my life would be... I would love to say a red Ferrari but I fear it’s more like a Silver Volvo and I am working on upgrading it to my dream ride!
