Of Life & Cars

Life's like an expressway or freeway whatever you call it. People are like cars. People drive in when they feel like. Use it when they need to. And boom...outside... before you even peep outside your car window. By the time you want to get a glimpse of it from your honda or trying to decide what make it is, its gone!!! You wish you moved faster or else you hadn't seen it in the first place but too bad its already got you distracted.You so want to figure out what exactly it was but guess what its far away, unreachable.

I bet you'll see many others while on board. But what about that one? That only who stole your sight away? Lost it i guess. It has overtaken you.

Ain't life like that? You lose one but there is hope u'll gain another. They say, umeed pe toh duniya kaayam hai! You gotta keep going at the same pace to in order to avoid a mess on the freeway and let the road moving swift. Guess what, chances are this time u'll see something more amazing, may be a BMW..!!! Take the chance and move on...!! How i wish of people and of cars...!!!

Very well written, the analogy of a car and life, I just couldent have thought of it more better.

Be cool. Rock on in life. Remember - A car looks more beautiful when its in motion. Dont worry if people get down, just be in motion...Carry on... :)

Excellent post. Seems like you are driving your Toyota Corrolla a little longer than you should. And the next time you drive that beautiful baby, keep your eyes on the road. That would save not just you but your car as well. Wow!!! I just replied in the way you wrote the note ;)

I was in the middle of posting my comment last night and "bam", my net connection crashed out :( ...I am back first thing in the morning to post a comment on one of the nicest blog posts I've read lately.

Really loved the man-machine comparison...Just makes me believe yet again that there are lessons to be learnt from everyday life and when you look at things from a different perspective, makes a lot of difference.

Again!!! Nice post...was smiling when I read it :)

Cars come and go, but the experience of driving the car is what really matters at the end... :)

Ya, as u said,sometimes a car still occupies a corner of our hearts,yet the car we will get will be the one which one deserves..

Happy Travelling !! ;)

I could hear the song Far Away echo on my notebook and was surprised... Thought there might be an error in recording... Not realising that the same song was playing on your blog as well :))

how has your sunday been so far....??

I had once compared life to a train journey in mah blog.... where people get in and out of our lives at different stations...
Your comparison of life to an highway gave me another different perspective to look at!!! Though sometimes the train/highway faces a lot of rush/traffic and while sometimes both seem completely deserted... We should not forget that at sometime, sooner or later, there will be rush/traffic once again :) :)

wow...wat a correlation yaar...life as an expressway n people as car's.....its the ability to relate to seemingly abstract things and make complete sense out of it that makes some writers stand out from the rest...and the biggest achievement for such a writer is when readers nod their heads in total agreement and tend to think...so true...why did not i stumble across such a thought...bang on gal...oops..aqua gal...cheers! keep them coming!
