I am used to sleeping during any car drive either i am going or coming back like, going to visit relatives ,going to school,travelling either by a car or plane. Sleeping in a car means a peaceful nap for me .
Yesterday i went to the mall during the drive we were stuck in a busy road ,i was looking outside the window then i saw a man walking on sidewalk holding a lot of colorful balloons and a small black jewelry box i assumed it was a ring ,he was walking towards a girl who was looking in another direction then he took a knee and surprised her by asking her to marry him infront of all these people who some of them started to laugh and clap and jump out of happiness and some them continued walking not paying attention to them .How romantic was that .
of course i was so happy and affected by what happened and i spend all the day with a smile on my face as if i was the girl who is marrying her lover .After that i realized that If i had slept that day i wouldn't have felt this happiness or saw the situation and by the way the reason i wasn't sleeping because there was a man driving a big truck who insisted on using the horns forever he didn't stop for 10 minutes straight so of course i woke up ,what was he thinking ?,i mean really was he crazy or sth?. whatever i started to think about the different situations i have missed and the people .
I believe that a car drive is an adventure it maybe short or long ,but i wasn't interested to live it that much .Now i decided not to sleep every drive i want to see people ,i want to see the man crossing the street in a hurry to get to his destination with a lot of sweat dripping down his face holding his kid , i want to see the lady with her kid in her car driving them to the club to practice whatever sport they do ,i want to watch her dressing them in the car while she is driving it's a crazy mess but very interesting to watch and think of how she is feeling now in that car. i want to see those girls singing at the top of their lungs not paying attention to the world .
It's like i am watching a quick stories of people with different lives going to different destinations with different aims .The traffic man, the crying girl or a boy walking the streets ,the tired men and ladies in a hurry to get back to their homes waiting for the day to end and start a new day .It'small quick not boring experience i want to live .
So i won't sleep during a drive again .
Note: That doesn't mean that i won't sleep if i am tired ,people can wait my body won't.
