  1. Pennies are these minuscule little amounts of money that people so easily disregard. It’s interesting to me that even though it IS money, something they can get something in return for, people throw them away so easily. I’ve seen people drop pennies on the ground and simply leave them there because they feel like it is more work to pick them up than they are worth…

  3. a penny is a thought, no, it is more than a t hought. A penny represents the foundation of American culture and the sole focus of some lives as it is based on consumerism and buying. But a penny also represents the mindset of a first world country, in that capitalism is the hardcore foundation of such. In that we, the residents of first class world countries, use pennnies–and for some of us that means picking them up off the sidewalk–then it can also have meanings beyond the merely financial.

    Pennies can be a representation of the state of mind that everything is possible, that regardless of what today brings tomorrow may bring something entirely different–and richer. That we can make more pennies with this one penny. That when we respect a penny, we respect a dollar. And when we respect a dollar we respect not only ourselves but our role in society, our fellow human being, and our country as a place in the worl.

    Pennies are also pretty things. Have you ever looked at a penny and thought, “Oooh, shiny.” Yes, indeed.

  5. the penny was face down but she picked it up anyway. Hell, with the other change in her pocket she may be able to get some noodles after all. Man, it’s a shame that the shifts last so long, she thought, i never have time to eat anything other than this shitty gas station food.

  11. A penny can do so little, yet so much at the same time. It can be such an insignificant piece of currency, but when you need that extra penny or two so you don’t have to break a dollar, it is great. In all honesty I hate pennies.

  13. When I was a little girl, I know a girl name Penny. I used to wonder why does her parents name her that? The only definition of penny that I know of is the money in the U.S., and a penny worth so little. Maybe they just think that the name is cute.

  16. I hate using pennies. A penny is fine. Having millions of them in a bucket makes it very heavy to carry. However, a penny can be some sort of treasure for someone. Or it could be just trash bait for the rest of you

  24. A penny is a completely useless ideal that should have been dropped a long time ago. We should move to a paperless and coin less society. It will take time to make sure everything works but we should be moving that way.

  35. Attitude changer. Little copper glint from the pavement saying, “look at me! You found me! Girl, you are lucky today!”. That was Grandma’s explanation of pennies. Her walk to school trick to distract my mind from Mom’s well aimed bruises. In the afternoon, Mom walked me home. She’d criticize me for looking at the ground. “Stop that, it looks like you’re looking for money!!” Naw, Ma, I’m looking for myself…
