Escape From Reality

Yes one thing which any one in this world would like to do but not many are fortunate to have that kind of a feeling in them it is known as "Escape from Reality" A place where you dont care of what is going around in this busy world, you dont think about your friends and what they would be doing at that very point of time, you dont think of what the world has to think about you, you dont think about what will happen when you wake up tomorrow and you go to your college/school/work or where ever, you dont think about the girl you currently having a crush on. All you are thinking is about the road no mirroirs around, not even a soul is visible to you and not even a bird eyeing you from up in the sky but its just you and your road. The feeling you have when you are all alone on the road and you can just see the street lights and a far away cars tail light and there you are in your car speeding through the traffic though there is none and all the traffic lights seem to have dissappeared suddendly all you see is blurred lightning and a very sharp front. When you had a fight from your closed ones, when you had nothing to do, when you felt like running away from the world and go of to Mars for a long vacations, when you wanted to crash every window pane in the locality there would have nothing from this you could actually do but you can always turn the ignition on hit the road. You could possibly do everything when you are all alone in your car.

Even when you were a kid and your father never even allowed you to drive the machine you always used to dream about sitting at the same seat he is sitting right now and drive on the same road he is driving currently but now the time had come you were sitting in the same seat and driving the same road. The feeling is just so amazing that you cant think about anything else except the road and your car.

It happens to me when i am sitting in the front seat of my room mates car and he is driving his sheer pleasure in his car and i am next to him just thinking about only one thing when will I get to drive on the same road.

Back home in India though the car was a prt of my life from the day I was born i didnt get much behind the wheels as i wanted to but whenever I did the feeling that was given to me by that car can not be matched. It was a feeling of "Escape from Reality"

It cannot be achived by any other event not even topping your class ( nothing big in it) not even bunjee jumping (blah blah) not even going for a date with the most beautiful women in your country (who the hell cares) not even the Prime Minister saying a few good words to you (Like I and the PM care) not even the feeling of landing in Melbourne for the first time could give me that feeling (My popcorns were confisticated by the Immigration Department) But as i said the feeling can not be matched the only reason being is that all of them happened in reality but the car for me and for many young guys and gals like me it is the Ultimate Escape House for me known as the "Escape from Reality"

I miss it in Melbourne, thought about buying a car but then again cost of Petrol and Registration Prices and Maintenance charges are so high that it is not possible for me to buy and maintain a car efficiently. I so wish it would have been possible for me to own a car and ride it when I felt that I needed to escape from what is reality for me.

"Escape from Reality" no other thing can match it or let me out it like this I havent found any othe4r activity that can give me that feeling.
