simplicity

Earlier this week I contemplated writing a blog about Wall-E's philosophy on too much stuff and consumerism overall. Today at work I had to move some people's cars and you learn a lot about a person by driving their car or even just stepping into their car. 

One car outright smelled foul and I know the man who owns it has a wife and children and is probably too busy to clean out that car that had bags, shoes, clothes, papers, everywhere in it. Another car owner had about 10 keys and two of those keychain cards on it. 

In my car, there is a coffee tumbler (I have a practice of not allowing myself to get some to go coffee unless I have a to-go cup with me so I always have one, sometimes two) and a piece of paper that tells people at the parking place where I work and that I can indeed legally park there and in the back seat there is a blanket in case of an impromptu picnic. On my keyring, there is a car key, a gate/pool key for my complex, and a house key. 

So even though I feel like maybe I should work on simplifying my life it seems like my heart and car are starting to head in the right direction.
