I was riding down the road the other and the car in front of me was carrying 3 mattresses and the driver was holding onto them with his left arm.At first I smiled at the sight as I thought of a Seinfeld episode. Then a wave of sadness hit me. The guy probably had to be out of his apartment that day and with little money or gas put 3 mattresses on his car-held by one rope and one arm and a prayer.To borrow a line from Jessica -It is easy to be critical of others for those of us who have never walked down anything but a privileged path. my reaction that day turned from laughter to tears to admiration. We all just do our best,and sometimes that means carrying 3 mattresses on your car and holding on with all you've got.
