Sometimes, it takes not having something to appreciate it. For me, that has certainly been the case with my car. It was an ugly, beat-up old thing, but it got me where I needed to go. I complained about it all the time, but when it finally died permanently I realized what a blessing it had been. I spent several weeks begging friends for rides to everywhere from dentist appointments to recreational activities, and it got really old really fast. I finally had to get a Car Loan and buy a new vehicle. I can’t even describe how good it felt to get into the driver’s seat of that car.
