Just Waiting for That Cold Black Sun-Cracked Numb-Inside Soul of Mine to Come Alive

Man's Search for Meaning, Viktor Frankl, perhaps the best 'self help' book on the shelves, I find the pages soothing every time I pick it up. The search for meaning is paramount in the quest of human motivation.

I35, a road that is vast, a road that goes through Texas all the way up to Minnesota, a key 'binding' road for San Antonio, New Braunfles, Austin, Minneapolis and Duluth. A brilliant idea, Eisenhower wanted to be able to land airplanes on these things in case of war, hence I think every 3 miles or so has to be straight. Straight, curves, fast lanes, slow lanes, changing lanes, changing vehicles, changing weather, from city to city, just like the plight of a relationship, it's all a balancing act.
