Since I bought my car back in December, I’ve found myself driving to work (as opposed to take the bus) much more often than before. Driving in Seattle rush hour traffic tends to drive me to road rage, anger and general frustration. Lately, I’ve noticed that I’ve been much more stressed and unhappy because of my commute. This week on Thursday and Friday I made a point of taking the bus and it just reminded me how I need to keep doing that. First of all, I don’t get ragey sitting on the bus (well, not usually), which is good for my overall mental health. Also, I remember taking the bus means I do an additional ~30-40 minutes of walking each day, which is good for my physical health. So I’m back on the wagon of taking the bus for my commute whenever possible.
