Highway Ballet
Amusement of Highway traffic flow.
Have you ever really sat and wondered about the Highway traffic that we see out on the roads 365 days a year. Some days more heavier then others, but there is always a constant flow about it, like an never ending flow of a stream through mountains.
I was driving to work today, and was fascinated by what I seen for a moment. You know, some of us drive Highways every day almost, and have we ever really paid attention to the cars on the roads? No we have not, as usually we are so busy running from here to there and rushing to get to one place or the other. But we never really pay attention to what is going on around us, to get us to that other spot.
As I was driving, I happen to just be coming over a slight hill, and I could see the highway in front of me, downward a little and I was able to see a sight that just really caught my attention, and I wanted to share with you.
When we move in and out of traffic, through the lanes, we really think nothing of it. And this was so cool to see, the car as they were moving in and out of traffic, it was like a water ballet. The smooth movement that they make in the water, without any sound, and they are in sequence, and this is what I seen of the cars on the highway in front of me. And, it was just a really cool thing to see, and it made my mind have a sense of peace when I thought of the ballet, instead of stressing about the traffic and distance that I would be driving.
Here we are, part of this on going motion, and yet we do not see ourselves doing this and what it actually looks like from afar. The cars seems to just move in a simple, even and uniform motion at one point. And then it just seemed to fit into place,
Just wanted to share this, if you have ever seen something like this, you would understand. If you have not, next time your in the passenger seat, take a look for a moment, what do you really see out there on the Highway…
