I copied this from GD posted by JDMeister. I think it defines me and a lot of us.
THE DREAM THAT MANY WILL NOT UNDERSTAND:
I built a dunebuggy for a personal dream.
One day when I am very old and when I can not walk anymore, it will be in my garage as a trophy of my memories.
I've met people who taught me something and have the same spirit, I've met others that I'm glad I have forgot.
I felt cold,
I felt warm,
I was afraid,
I fell,
I stood back up,
I even hurt myself,
But also, I laughed out loud inside the helmet.
I spoke a thousand times with myself.
I sang and shouted with joy like a madman.
I have seen wonderful places and lived unforgettable experiences.
I have stopped a thousand times to see a landscape.
I have spoke with perfect strangers, and I have forgot people I see every day.
I went out with my demons inside and returned home with an absolute peace in my heart.
I always thought how dangerous it is, knowing that the meaning of courage is to advance even feeling fear.
Every time I go up to my buggy I think about how wonderful it is.
I have spent money that I did not have, giving up many things, but all these things are worth even a moment when it comes to my buggy.
It is not a means of transport or a piece of iron with wheels, it is a part of my soul and my spirit.
And when someone says to me: "You should sell the buggy and you have to be a more serious person", I do not answer. I just nod my head and smile.
Racing my buggy...only the person who loves them understands it.
May God bless my friends and their machines, may the adventures continue.....

Amen to that one.
