Drive Carefully: I Can't Drive 55 By Sammy Hagar

Recently, I heard in the news that traffic enforcers are now using speed measuring devices in a road where people tend to drive fast. The reason for this is because there have been many accidents that have been happening there lately. A lot of these accidents have caused a lot of injuries and worse, a lot of fatalities as well. I guess some motorists never learn to be careful while on the road. These reckless accidents remind of the song "I Can't Drive 55" by Sammy Hagar.

I have to admit there are times when I like to go faster when there's no traffic on the road. Be that as it may, it doesn't mean I want to break the sound which break every bone in my body as well. Unfortunately there are some reckless drivers out there who think the road is a race track, thereby putting the pedal to metal. Unfortunately, some of them lose control and before you know, people are being sent to the hospital or the morgue. When caught and asked why, they can't give pertinent explanation for their fool actions which caused a lot of lives.

Sometimes I wonder why these people are given their driver's license? Even if you're in a hurry, it doesn't mean you throw caution to the wind and other people's lives along with it. It gets worse if it's some teenage delinquent driving a car that's not his and when it gets wreck, it's the parents who pay. Man, if you're gonna drive fast, drive in a race track cause if not take your time for other people's sake. Remember, it's at the end of the road when you'll regret it.

Right Now I Wish All The Bad Would Disappear: Eagles Fly By Sammy Hagar

You know we're still coping with the loss of our father and things haven't been easy. As much as I don't want to take things for granted, there are times when it just overwhelms me. I've been thinking too much to the point that some people think I'm aloof, hence, resulting in further alienation. Life has been so dreary that sometimes something really good would happen to lift me up from this blue funk. The need to lift myself out of this depressing state can be expressed in Sammy Hagar's song "Eagles Fly".

Apart from the loss that we had to deal with, the fact that things haven't been well with me for the last 10 years has already starting to eat up at every single reserve of fortitude and patience that I have left. When people tell go off and have an adventure, how can I do that when I haven't figured out a way to solve the financial dilenma here, let my mother's sorrow which I share since my dad's passing. The fact that health problems are now taking a physical and emotional toll on her has sunk my spirits to an all new low. Right now, I'm either banging the desk while typing on my laptop trying hard not to give in to all this pressure even as I feel my chest starting tighten around me.

As much as I want to fly away to never land, I cannot abandon my responsibilities here. How I wish things would lighten up here if what I was doing would just bear some fruit. Till then, I have to deal with this cause it's the only thing that I can do and do it as best as I can. Hopefully the day will come when the sun appears and all the misery would vanish from this household. When that happen, then I could really fly like an eagle to a place where I can be at peace.
