Driven
A lot of supercars are trailer queens, pampered, taken from place to place in protective trailers, driven carefully to preserve a perfect appearance, and some are not. You can tell the ones that are driven, they are less than perfect. The car above was parked at the carwash the other morning. It is driven, the headlight covers are a little yellowed, and there is a small crack on the nose, you can see it right there. The crack continues on the piece in front of the headlight. At the cost of Ford GT parts, that is probably a $10,000 crack. It is also a sign, that this one has been enjoyed.
In life I have a few blemishes, a few cracks, a few signs of having been driven hard. I like it that way. I am not perfect, wouldn't want to be at this point in life.
Are you driven or a trailer queen?
driven hard and put away wet. that's what gives me character.
ReplyDeleteDriven hard. Definitely. (And I never thought I would ever describe myself that way.)
ReplyDeleteAnother hard driver here...

Driven hard into trees, over and over! I'm too lazy to be high maintenance.
ReplyDeleteGreat to see a profile, how can we find your blog?
DeleteBlog? Are you nuts! Long winded, manic comments is the closest I'll come.
DeleteDeedles, you would be great!
ReplyDeleteAw, that's sweet, but nope. To paraphrase: Them that can, blog. Them that can't, comment (once they've worked up the nerve).
