A Long way home


A driving car sets in motion, dhe ree ree ree... Climbing up the hillside through the bushy and bleaky vegetation; Descending down the valley through the dark night and broad daylight; piercing through sweltering temperature and a heavy torrent; between the meadows, a driving car moves onwards his destination.
Dozens of passengers set on a fatiguing journey, slanting against the seat, dozing off left and right; snorting loud and low with the open mouth and dipping saliva absorbed into a deep slumber... a sleeping passenger travels through bumps and undulating terrain.
That’s true, it’s tough and takes the long way to clutch your hand on the steering wheel of a vehicle. Yes, I understand how thrilling it feels to be in the front seat; how stylish one act’s with the black sunglass over your face; how wonderful you feel when equipped with cigarettes between fingers, Doma in your mouth and a mobile in your hand with a blasting music overhead yet drunken by your pride thus, commute so many innocent travelers from one point to the other destination.

Every innocent commuter’s boards into the car with the heart full of invocations and aspirations for their safe ride. No sooner do they get positioned on their respective seat would mean they place their lifeline in the hands of the man behind the wheel. Just than a wish no assurance will come forth for what would occur on the way. It’s like quasi-alive quasi-death clinging on the line of uncertainty. Starting from tots till grey-haired men mutter incessant mantras and prayers for the cost of safeties knowingly or unknowingly.
Being liable for responsibly shouldering his obligation of transporting passengers with safety, drivers must bear in mind to drive cautiously and reach everyone’s destination securely. A driver would be much appreciated  if he doesn’t intoxicate, if he avoids multi-tasking such as smoking cigarette, he would deserve deemed respect if he doesn’t play phone while driving. The life force of dozens of people are being invested in his pair of hand. The future of every traveler is enclosed within the shell alike vehicle which is more fragile than an egg. After all, he leads the team so he must be the effective team leader.
