What do you think about when you drive? Do you listen to music? Make mental lists? Find a new podcast? Many Americans spend a lot of time on the road, heading to places both familiar, and new. Discovering New Perspectives on Youth, Change, and the Beauty of Home for Those Who Grew Up in the 80s and 90s. In this humorous exploration, the author confronts the four horsemen of turning 40: loss of hair, shifting perspectives, weight gain, and the looming specter of mortality. Set against the backdrop of a pandemic, this journey unfolds over ten days through the familiar landscapes of North Carolina. What began as a promise made in third grade transforms into a reflection on life, identity, and the passage of time. As the author traverses the state, he revisits cherished memories, reconnecting with the people, places, and music that shaped his youth. Each stop along the way serves as a reminder of how experiences can be viewed through different lenses as one ages. The vibrant energy of youth contrasts sharply with the contemplative nature of adulthood, revealing the beauty and complexity of growing older. Driving is such an important part of the American experience, whether it be a daily commute or a cross country road trip. This book is not just a travelogue; it's a rumination on life's transitions, the importance of perspective, and the enduring connection to home. As the author navigates the roads of North Carolina, he discovers that while the passage of time may bring challenges, it also offers opportunities for growth, understanding, and renewed appreciation for the beauty of life.
