通勤人生
Commuter Life
小编是个标准的通勤族,每天两点一线,透过车窗看着冬去春来,看着拼车族与租车公司的兴起,看着滴滴打车蔚然成风。而就在最近,我看到了一幕挺“怀旧”的景象:有一天下班回家,等红灯时无聊地看着窗外,我突然发现路上骑单车的人多起来了——除了“摩拜橘”“ofo黄”“小鸣蓝”以外,还有不少人骑的是“私家车”,各式各样,煞是好看,让我一下子想起以前骑车上学的日子,不禁有点感慨……
有人说,交通系统能够折射出一个城市的方方面面——在人们变着法子与交通问题打交道的同时,社会也会在这个过程中一点点地迈向完善与进步。
希望这些“网红”小单车能够成为我们改变生活方式的第一步。

Life is too short for traffic.
—Dan Bellack
Americans will put up with anything provided it doesn’t block traffic.
—Dan Rather
It’s your choice, what you do with the moment. If you’re stuck in a traffic jam, you can get angry andhonk[按喇叭]yourhorn[喇叭], or listen to Mozart.
—Deepak Chopra
Life always gives us exactly the teacher we need at every moment. This includes every mosquito, everymisfortune[不幸], every red light, every traffic jam... Every moment is theguru[导师].
—Joko Beck
