62【Alissa 】What my car made me realize again

It’s been over 4 months since I got a new car. I was happy with my old car, and I didn’t plan to get a new one, but now I’m fond of my new car. My current car is a used TOYOTA Probox, which was designed for commercial use. Whenever I tell people that I chose this car, they wonder why, as it’s not fancy at all. The main reason we chose it is because it met all our requirements which included budget, durability, and a relatively low maintenance fee. My expectations were fairly low, but the more I drive this car, the more I realize something else that I love about it. As I started driving it regularly, I found similarities that it has with the very first car I owned, which was a HONDA Civic. It had manual window cranks, and was covered in scratches, just like my car now! Although the Civic was an old worn-out car, I have countless happy memories associated with it. Now as I drive this car, I find myself feeling grateful because some of those memories come flooding back when I do things like rolling up my windows manually in the Probox. I believe that sometimes inconvenience can lead to happiness. When we experience inconvenience, we can appreciate and feel grateful for things that are convenient. In my opinion, adding a bit of inconvenience can increase our overall happiness. While I do appreciate convenience, I also find myself seeking out inconvenience as a way to keep myself centered. That’s what my car made me realize again. I will continue to cherish the imperfections and inconveniences that come along with my Probox, and the happy memories they bring back as I drive it. —————————————————————— 🗣Do you study English?
