:(

Sarah and I were coming home from the doctor today, and we saw a garbage truck on the opposite side of the road. From the front I saw a large pink teddy bear fall to the ground behind the truck. The guy in the back picked it up and threw it in the back of the truck, its head lolling back the whole time. I looked in the rear view mirror as we passed it and saw it among the trash, waiting to be compacted. We were quiet for a minute, and then I asked Sarah, "That was kind of sad, wasn't it?" She said "It was."
