The sporty car I bought threw a wheel bearing the 3rd day. It gave me repercussions about Shanghieing the truck, but after reading what Acneman wrote about fear I forged on, leaving fear to go its way. Don't look back at what was, look forward to what can be. After $900 for a wheel bearing, tires, brake upgrade and inspection, I was legal and the car that sat for 2 years was running strong. On my 27 mile commute today, I passed with ease up a steep 6 mile climb, and the hum of the flat four cylinder brought back sweet memories of the Porsche I salvaged from a farmer's field back in my single days, brought back to life, and drove hard for 6 1/2 years before a teenager smashed me into another field. Sometimes we aren't who we say we are, (truck), and without giving in to fear of reprisal, we realize that it's OK we are who we are (sporty car with room for the kids)! PS: no drugs here, system has been clean for years, script, rec or otherwise. No need or desire, more alert than ever. Painful moments are not shunned, hidden or drugged over, but embraced then released. I am alive and want to be.
