Elliptical road and pot holes

Comfort zones. 

I realized something today about them.. 

As I was driving home with Celine in the passenger seat fast asleep.. I take my usual route when I'm coming from somewhere south which is go through Quezon City elliptical road and exit towards Commonwealth. 

I knew that every single time as I stick right to prepare to exit, I would always, always hit a certain deep pothole despite passing through it several times. It feels as if I never learn. 

Then it dawned on me why I always fall for the same trap every single time. Its because its my comfort zone to stick extremely right as to not miss my exit but I would always fall on the pothole. If I would only drive a bit straight and not be a segurista when it comes to exiting, my beat up car would actually be less beat up.. My tires won't be as worn, my suspension won't be too messed up. 

I guess its the same with life. When we want all the security and guarantee we tend to miss certain benefits about living a bit spontaneously. 

Lesson learned, sure is not always the best way.
