Driving a car, is a religion to me.
My car is my temple.
The road, my faith.
When I'm driving on the road, I become a part of the whole. I'm dissolved into the system.
Ultimately, driving is interacting with other cars, and in each car, there's a driver behind the steering wheel, not unlike you yourself.
You become a particle in a stream of metal flow governed by traffic signs and traffic rules.
Around you, there are countless other particles, each zipping from and to their destinations, each with a purpose, and that purpose being,
Why are you going there?
To work.
As what?
As a mechanic.
As a manager.
As a doctor.
I see a Mercedes. He's got to be a lawyer.
And I can relate to each and everyone who just kissed their kids and drove to their workplace.
I sympathize with the world...
And I know I am not different, he's no different, she's no different.
And I know we are each different but all the same.
Drive safely, and be fuel efficient.
These are the only rules in this religion of driving.
