The husband broke his own rule of always picking up litter when he saw it but didn't stop because he wasn't in a hurry or didn't have a trash can nearby. The wife suggests making it easier for him to follow his rule and encourages him to do his part in keeping the community clean.

I feel like I broke my own rule today.

What rule did you break?
human
My rule of always picking up litter when I see it. I saw some litter on the sidewalk today but I didn't stop to pick it up.

Well, sometimes it's not always possible to pick up litter. You might have been in a rush or didn't have a trash can nearby.

I know, but it still bothers me. I feel like I'm not being strict enough with myself.

I don't think you need to be so hard on yourself. You're doing a good thing by picking up litter whenever you can.
human
I just want to do my part in keeping our community clean. Maybe I'll make it a point to always have a small trash bag with me so I can easily dispose of any litter I come across.

That's a great idea! Plus, it'll make it easier for you to follow your rule without feeling like you're inconveniencing yourself.

Yes, exactly! I feel better already thinking about how I can improve my trash-picking habits.
