gift
February 13, 2008
On Monday, I got a new car. Not new as in a 08 model, but new to me. It’s actually old, a 95 Buick Riveria, with lots o miles. But it was free.
A gift.
No payment would be taken by the previous owner. They just wanted to give it away.
They had received a similar gift, and wanted to do the same for someone else. Then they found out I needed a car. At first they were going to take a nominal fee to cover the cost of a home project - but in the end the decided they wanted no payment.
And now I have a car that works. And I was able to pass my car on to someone who has the means to repair it, and use it to pile the miles on for their tri-weekly commute from Pittsburgh to Akron.
The kingdom at work. In the hearts of those generous people who just wanted to give a gift. Thanks Terry and Natalie.
