The obsession with money which dominates our culture scares me. I do not need to be rich to be successful. Not all rich men/women are what I consider successful. And even to a non religious person like myself Mother T was supremely successful.
Okay, the car is tempting, but it seems that, instead of getting into it, you would put the car onto your body, kind of like a bad bra. Even skinny people had trouble squeezing into my Mom's beloved 2-seater Mercedes: like a bra: not comfortable, but cute...DrumMajor

ReplyDeleteNot a fan of yellow .. money is necessary how else do we provide a home, nourishment and clothing?
ReplyDeleteI'd kind of like to have that car though. Not that I have anyplace to drive it.
