Does everything have to be a deep, meaningful, rich experience with some people? Whatever mode of transportation you use, why not just enjoy it for what it is? Save the philosophizing for the times when it's truly special; otherwise, those unique experiences will just blend into the woodwork and become mundane and ordinary.
