Remember the Guiness Book of World Records? Remember the contest to see how many people you could jam/ stuff into a volkswagon bus?
Before it got unsafe?
Or someone lost an eye?
Or perished?
Or went missing?
Or great damage was done?
As we do, they likely discovered that they could always fit one more. However, I am pretty sure there was someone who finally said
“Thats it, that is all we can fit”
No one really says that to you about your life.
And I won the contest.
But I haven’t stopped stuffing it.
It is like I am a hoarder- but of life experience, not things.
And no one pulls you aside to say “too much”. And if they do- I consider it almost a challenge.
Oh, it is a cute bus with really adorable stickers on it and a great playlist, but it is breaking at times under the pressure.
Nancy says
legs and arms already out, all the windows rolled down and people riding on top
Julie says
you can always roll down the windows on the bus and stick a leg out giving you more room 🙂
