It’s become trendy lately to share a photo of the price of
gas and blame it on someone besides ourselves. I get it. Filling your tank has gotten
seriously pricey. And maybe if we had a different president right now, it
wouldn’t be quite so expensive. But what will keep the price high is our
attitude – the idea that we have no choice but to pay whatever it costs. There
are ALWAYS alternatives. We can carpool, use public transportation, or work
from home. We can switch to an electric car, a hybrid, or simply one that
wastes less gasoline. We can choose a job with a shorter commute, or move
closer to where we work. We can stop idling. We can streamline our errands and
eliminate unnecessary trips. We can eat home cooked meals more often, and dine
out less. We can leave the car behind and walk or bike more often. What will
you choose?
