Having been a year of crazy and needed changes, I've entered a second phase of big changes. My car that has been so literally attached to me, has now been sold and I'm migrating over to the epitamy of exciting vehicles: a Dodge Caravan. With the sale of the car goes my stereo too. No more subwoofer. Ultimately this is a good thing, I mean you don't want 650 watts of bass pounding when you have a newborn in the car but still; I love that stereo. These, of course, are the necessary changes that I make for my family; they are the most important after all.
The sale of the car saddens me however. I have an unnatural attachment to my vehicles. When I left for my mission ten years ago I had just as hard of a time leaving my truck as my family. Fortunately, they were both there when I got back. Though I am excited about closing off the chapter of my life that was tied into that Hyundai, it does mean that I'm parting with the source of many memories and journies.
To my Hyundai, which was mine from new, I bid farewell, knowing that except at the chance passing I will likely never lay eyes on her again. sigh.........
