I had a car.

I had been dreaming about buying a car for quite some time.Wanted to have the latest model, with State of the art music system,Radial Dial,air -conditioned , automatic gear et al.I slogged, saved ,borrowed and bought one.

The joy of owning a car and showing it off to others was a thrilling experiece.

Time went by.

Every day I had to attend to the car to maintain it;ihad to crawl in the rush hour; find parking space, often the parts needed replacements;needed to renew insurance; has to plan loan repayment,had to avoid parking tickets.

It was too much.

I appointed a driver.

I was not sure as to when he shall report sick;nor could I anticipate when he will involve the car in an accident;nor how he would gyp me on gas.

I had to worry about loan repayments .

One fine day I decided to do away with the car.

No longer I needed to worry about the car, its maintanence, gas bills, loan repayment,no worries on finding a parking space,no fear of Police on Parking tickests,no question of managing a driver.

I am free.
