Highway to?

I drove across the country all myself today. Ok alright, it was across the state, so what. It is same but different.

Driving up to the destination was spent concentrating not to miss the exit and making sure I stay on track but the return trip was more relaxed, filled with mixed feelings, while retracing the steps back home

There were feelings of sadness and contentment at the same time. I guess sadness came from a place where I felt alone and abandoned. I am used to being driven everywhere if it was out of the norm distant trip and I guess I missed the protectiveness you feel from such an act.

Contentment came from a place and belief that I can do it and I don’t have to depend on anyone.
