About this ebook
ONE DAY AN UNHAPPY MAN WENT FOR A DRIVE
He went for a drive. That’s it. Just a drive. A drive with no destination and for no particular reason except to clear his head....get himself out of a melancholy mood...maybe even find a smile somewhere in the gloomy realities of his life. But the real question ....that he needed to answer was...”Why Am I Unhappy. I should be Happy. Most men with my life would be happy. But I am not. So again I ask why the hell am I so damn unhappy.
He went for a drive....just a little cruise in his convertible...with the top down and the wind blowing through his hair. But an hour became two three and finally four until he stopped at a line up for the ferry at Tobermory. A line he could not get out of. So he paid the fee and followed the lineup onto the boat.
“I should call home and let Ina know that I am still driving.” He thought. But he didn’t.
He had lunch on the ferry and ate like he was famished....which was exactly right because he had left home before breakfast, had missed supper the night before and only had a light lunch...so now he was having supper, breakfast and lunch all at once which he was just finishing when the ferry arrived at Southbay Mouth.
He returned to his car and followed the line of cars off the boat, stopping briefly to let the faster moving vehicles get ahead of him. He was not in a hurry and was not even sure where he was going...except he was on Manitoulin Island and at that moment it came as a great idea to explore this largest fresh water island in the world. So when all the traffic was gone he pulled back on to the road and started the next leg of his drive....still not quite happy but no longer severely unhappy...”Somewhere in between.” He thought but had not found a smile in the still semi-dull reaches of his mood.
