Life of a Speed Demon

There are many violent crashes on many highways and during these times many people put safety behind their minds. While grabbing air and speed, the feverish pitch of just being free and hitting the pavement till your face melts off is always classic James Dean.

You can stop shy of delivering our last dance of youth but generally, burning rubber plus seeing this as a last-ditch effort before getting to old age is quite common. They prosper and look up to idols preferably close ones, like dad? You would smile at the fact that you are almost or mostly like your dad while you are driving.

It is always wise to know the rules of the road. Sometimes though it doesn’t feel like it pertains to everyone. You cannot lie that being a speed demon is a mash-up of inspiration and idolization. It is tempting to go as fast as you can. You feel like it is always the best for you, but there are dangers in being a speed demon, you can get hurt or worse die.

The lasting feeling of adrenaline and a rush of blood to the head is observed as menacing but very addicting, but in the end slowing down and being relaxed is what everyone does on the road. Yes expressing good common sense is achievable. Suddenly, you find yourself being respectful. This is what we learned naturally when we took our first driving lesson at age 16.

If speed demons stop obsessing over speed, there would be no daredevils and no plea for abnormality. In fact, the differences between a speed demon and a regular driver can only be imagined in our minds as a better choice because you drive without fear. However, living bolder is tempting. Starting in our youth, when we build a cloud of candy and who doesn’t like the taste of candy? Everyone cannot shake a sweet tooth, just like the taste for speed.

With the Indy 500 soon on its way, we can just imagine what it is like to be a speed demon and know that just by being an observer is just as exciting as feeling that adrenaline rush while watching them. You cannot avoid the fact though that living the life of a race car driver is so unchangeable and permanent.

Time seems to be right for a budding speed demon and the love for cars will not change too. It is like coming closer to heaven, when you achieve speed. A more pronounced way to be is to be a speed demon in your head. Never plunging too deep into the dark side. Life can be strange. The only times we can run free is in our dreams. The life of a speed demon will always foster good thoughts and unchaotic dreams.

In honor of Mother’s Day, I have been thinking of all the things my mom does for my family and me. Although I couldn’t write nearly all of them, here are a few things that moms do for us.

Thank You on wooden blocks

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!
