TIME MARCHES ON !!, Old man getting older Options

[axelrduvirage]

as of 0346 this morning i have entered the second phase of the wonderful journey called life. i decided long ago the middle-age would be 45 for me. i said goodbye to that youthful age yesterday. i did not wake up wiser today, nor did i wake up feeling older. i did wake up listening to my thoughts a little closer. though i've accomplished many things already, i realize i still have a whole life's worth of living to do. without hopefully sounding too much like the wise man on the mountain, i would like to share a few thoughts with you:

be courteous to others.
charity begins at home.
ask for help.
share knowledge.
be kind to yourself.

thank you all for being informative, supportive and entertaining. i have learned a lot about my car, myself and how others, like yourselves, live your lives in today's crazy world.

Hehe my dad taught me that when i first started driving, drive with determination, courage, and faith--no fear.
Kept me out of trouble, accidents and stupid stuff, and with all the let's call it "defensive driving" that i do. It quickened and heightened my awareness and reflexes.
I did however get into one accident though--mainly thorugh my stupidity and hence, TOO MUCH belief in my driving skills that I was way over my head. Thus, leading to my celica!
My theory, "They say, 'better safe than sorry,' but in driving terms, "you drive safe, than you sorry".
Because, in my perspective, i've seen way too many people driving safe but end up getting in accidents (not always caused by them but by the other drivers)

PEOPLE don't drive with this theory or drive w/o care, its just how I drive, i'm not trying to be provocative to those and start driving like a maniac, please drive safe guys.
