Car-Free or Car-Less

This morning I treated my self to a morning of guilt free self indulgence. I woke late, drank espresso, ate a healthy breakfast and enjoyed reading along with PVR pleasures. All because my car is in the shop and I have no wheels. Its noon now and this care free car-free mood is beginning to adjust. What changed? This morning I was fine with the lack of mobility and actually enjoyed the situation I was experiencing. Was the garage in control or was I in control? Initially I thought it was the garage. Thinking it though its me and it always was me. It was my choice to bask in car-free heaven and it is also my choice to move that elation to car-less angst. I have control over how I react to everything that that life throws at me. There are times I need to be reminded of this. So I’m going to bundle up and walk downtown (OK so its only downtown Markham) and window shop with the dog and enjoy being car-less. I’ve made my choice!
