Sharon's Response to Alexa's Reaction

           I agree with Alexa that the characters’ lives on the road seem to go by twice as fast as everyone else’s because everything just comes and goes for them. While it seems true that no one stops to feel, I think that what’s keeping them active is the adrenaline; it’s the excitement of the unknown and the expanse horizon of wild chances and choices that they live off of. I like how Alexa described Dean as a ‘very passionate man with crazy emotions’. I feel that after attempting to settle down, and breaking out of it, Dean is wilder than ever. Like Alexa, I’m glad that Dean has someone to love in a head-over-heels fashion. I think that the reason he and Marylou complement each other so well is that they both have the same need and desire for the rush and excitement. Anyone else would just be too boring for them, and there’s something quite remarkable how despite the number of partners they have in between, the two of them always choose each other over anyone else when it comes down to it. I’m also eager to see how the second part’s life on the road is going to be different from the first part that ultimately ended with Sal returning home.
