I wish I could but my car isn't running.
Just wtf is wrong with society these days?!

I sincerely hope my response will not add to your anger. I say this with good intentions. If it seems like I'm poking fun at you or trolling, please look deeper
The simplicity of the present moment is that, where there was a car, there is now empty space. Such is the fleeting nature of forms in the world of form
Nothing in the world of form is permanent: health, good looks, jobs, money, relationships, houses, cars, wallets.
When we take these things for granted and hold on to them tightly is when we get hurt most.
Also, what the thief did is really none of your concern, nor is it in your control. You have much less control over the events of the world than you think you do.
*** Trigger warning: *** It's not the car being gone that's the problem. It's your expectation (and resulting emotions) that people should not steal, and your illusion of control over that, that's the problem.
So says Eckhart Tolle.
