dreams of a new car

Posted on April 18, 2008

Ramil and I have been so frustrated with our dreams of a new/newer car. A few months before Mateo was born, we almost bought ourselves a brand new Aveo Sedan. Our bank loan got approved without a hitch, and the car guy was almost to the point of driving the car right to the front of our house just so we could commit to buying it asap. Boy, were we soooo tempted to just take the leap and go for it. Unfortunately, my impending delivery in a few months’ time brought us back to our senses. Lately, we’ve been seeing a lot of cars for viewing in different malls and we can’t help but remember our dreams of a newer car. It doesn’t help that our red car is getting to be less road-worthy with each passing month. We’d sometimes think of selling it and commuting instead. It would have been so straightforward back during the old times when transportation comes in the form of horses and the only accessories you’ll need are saddles. We are holding on to our dreams, even though Ramil would sometimes feel hopeless whenever he thinks about how much we’re earning and how much we’re spending lately. Nevertheless, I’d often tell him that we’ll get there. It may not be now but I know we will.
