Animate the inanimate

Could there be any significance to the objects we pass by in our everyday lives? What about that broken, beat-down car on the side of the road? Is it home to families in third-world countries? What of the nonessential luxuries we buy and discard when they are no longer the latest fashion? The 10 pairs of shoes in your closet. The 9 pairs underneath my bed. And the child who digs through the trash hoping to find a pair, matching or not? We've got it made. Do you agree? You can discuss politics all you want while your sitting at that coffe shop with your peers, supporting the war or not. I have too much. Other's don't.
