on one hand, i don’t want to drive a car because they are ruining or planet and our people. car accidents, carbon emissions, and even debt are taking away lives. car theft. theft to buy cars. street racing. pollution. road kill. drive by shootings! kidnappings!! jeez there are just so many negative aspects to vehicles.
but on the other hand, i am sick of not being able to get around. i ride a bike, yes, but it can only take you so far (even in the best of weather). lugging around my bedroom in a backpack just to be out of the house all day and night, or for days at a time… it kind of becomes a pain after a while. i want to travel. i want to go on a road trip down south. i want to be able to just get up and go somewhere if i want, not plan months in ahead to make sure i have a ride there and back and yadda yadda. i mean, i could travel by train or bus. i do that all the time. but they only go at set times to set places, it’s not the same as going for a late night drive.
here’s to a new year with new hopes and dreams *raises glass of beer* cheers!
