I didn't bring the car today.
I feel weird.
I know I should feel ashamed for feeling incomplete without the car.
I was a commuter all my life until I finally decided to go behind the wheel.
But it's so hard to depend on other people to take me to my preferred destination.
It just feels awful.
I feel as if I have lost control of my life.
Not exaggerating.
But I keep telling myself the car's not all that.
And yet, it is.
Very much.
Very much all that.
So I will sit patiently in the passenger seat until I am home.
Then I'll rev it up.
