Last night I drove from Manning to Chilliwack, the idea was to leave manning around 4 and get to chilliwack sometime around five. However, I'm absent minded (Joleen if you're reading this... it only proves your point about my mad rushing) and I forgot my wallet. I drove half an hour without my wallet..then turned around to go get it. Anyways, getting to the point.. by the time I got past hope, the sun was just setting below the mountains, and everything in front of me was just a silhouette in front of a gold and orange sky. Mount Cheam just had a glimmer of orange light still hitting the face. It was one of the most beautiful drives I've ever seen. So I'm driving with this amazing view in front of me, music playing loud so I couldn't hear the engine or the road... and I got this amazing feeling like I wasn't even there. I got completely lost in the moment... and i felt like I could just drive forever, totally in peace. I don't know if anyone's ever read the book 'The Perks of Being a Wallflower', but in the book the main character says 'I feel infinite'... and I never truly understood what it meant, but that's how that drive felt: infinite.
Maybe the hole in my catalytic converter has been leaking a few too many fumes into my car....
