The car was actually a sign when I was a child. I remember that at that time, the family had a car, and it was simply the star of the town, and it could attract whispers everywhere for a while. But don't look at it, time has come to the present in a blink of an eye, and this view is very different.
In fact, there are really some thought-provoking things behind this. Although everyone's living standards have generally improved, this car, whether there is one, seems to be a very important face issue for some children. Sometimes, when children are in school, they like to compare whether they have a car at home, as if that can represent something.
I remember one time a friend told me about his child. His family is in average condition and has not bought a car. On his children's way to school, they are often teased by their classmates, saying that "you don't even have a car at home".
This made my friend very uncomfortable, and he said, "What does this car mean?" Could it really represent a person's value? "I was quite touched by this.
Now that I think about it, I think that some people have cars and are not very sensible. Some people start to look down on people because they have some money to buy a car, and this kind of talent really makes people feel ashamed.
You see, children who have a car at home are used to riding in a car from an early age and may become more dependent. Children who don't have a car may know how to cherish more, know how to be more grateful, and know that they have to rely on their own legs to try to walk their own way.
Going back in time, I have heard a lot of interesting stories, some families originally did not have a car, but later bought a car when the conditions allowed. This kind of change can actually reflect the psychological changes of a family.
At first, you may feel that it is inconvenient to not have a car, but over time, you may also find that the car is just a means of transportation, and the quality of life does not depend on it to improve. Instead, it's the little everyday pleasures, such as riding a bike to the park as a family, that may be more intimate as a family.
Going back to our small place, some people have a car at home, and it is really convenient to go out. But sometimes, especially on holidays, you can see that traffic jam that can suffocate people. At this time, those who usually ride a bicycle or walk may be able to reach their destination earlier.
There are also some environmentally friendly ways to travel in the market, such as shared bicycles and electric scooters. These things, not only convenient, but also environmentally friendly, for us ordinary families, are not more suitable?
There is really no need to worry too much about whether you have a car or not. More importantly, how can we make life better under the existing conditions?
Owning a car should not be a measure of quality of life. What we need may be a simple, healthy, eco-friendly way of life.
