POLITICAL BUMPERS

0 Comments
It's amazing what people put on their cars. I think a bumper sticker can say a lot about you. It's body art of the car and everyone has t heir different tastes. Do you think anyone looks at the bumper sticker and is swayed politically, religiously or other kind of "ly" about it. All of us really enjoy the funny ones:
I think even by putting those on here, I'm immediately implying some characteristics of who I am as a person. Though I'm not quite "old" or offended by smoking, I do find a thrill squinting at bumper stickers on the road (it's even more intense while driving). I remember seeing one bumper sticker the other day that really stirred my thought. By this point, I can't remember what exactly was on it (maybe I should make blog notes throughout the day) but I can remember looking at it and wondering if anyone was going to change their way of thinking based on the bumper sticker.
The even more intriguing part is how many of us are wearing bumper stickers. Our clothes, hair, makeup (if applicable), accessories, acquaintances, friends and nearly anything else you can think of about your life automatically puts a bumper sticker on you. Yet unlike a piece of adhesive placed on the backside of our vehicles, we have life and breath that goes with ours. Our persuasions have ways of living out themselves in front of the eyes of everyone. And though I may be unable to decipher what a life of one political persuasion versus the other looks like, lives have a way of speaking volumes. When becoming introspective, we have to ask ourselves what it looks like when someone drives by us. The glimpse they get of us, do they see bitterness, anger and everything that comes with an angry sticker? Or do they see one of those bumper stickers that sticks with you for a while...
