After filling up with gas, I found myself staring intently at the car wash price list…
It would be faster to have someone wash it for me. Plus I could get other work done. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thinking carefully about the balance between time and money is really necessary. (*’\u03c9’*) <\/p>\n\n\n\n


<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

So I immediately called around to gas stations to send the truck out for a wash…
but none of them would accept trucks. ( \uff1b\u2200\uff1b) <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Finally, I found one place nearby that would take it, so I made the request right away.
One thing led to another, and before I knew it, we ended up adding a coating job too. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

When they called to say it was done and I went to pick it up…
“Wow, wow, wow!” It was incredibly clean.
I found myself thinking, if it was going to turn out this clean, I should have sent it out much sooner. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why is it that when something becomes clean, our spirits just lift?
And then, as a bonus effect, you want to clean everything else too… it’s the same with motorcycles, isn’t it?
I realized this might be a subtle but positive effect.

Lately, haven’t you noticed that things you suddenly want or decide to buy become hard to get?
I wonder if something invisible is happening in the world…
The days when you could freely get whatever you wanted whenever you wanted might be a thing of the past. That’s what I started thinking. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
