Thanks Keith and everyone else.

Yes I'm real. I've driven the car like three times in the past two months.

I don't need it, don't want it. I really will get some pix soon.

It's not visually perfect because it sat outdoors for 2.5 years, but mechanically sound.

I just want to simplify my life, humble myself, and move on.
You see, I'm a control freak. I give advice to those who don't want it. I tell total strangers (as well as my wife) what they should do.

I've done that here at CEG, and maybe I learned that habit here. At the risk of giving more unsolicted advice, I can testify from personal experience that it can ruin your relationships with others if they are the kind of person that doesn't take to that well.

So this is all part of my life 180. I'm trying to cut off those things in my life that may fuel that sort of behavior. My SVT and the CEG are a few of those things.

I'm trying to live this scripture as my life right now:

Quote:

James 1:19-20 My dear brothers, take note of this: Everyone should be quick to listen, slow to speak and slow to become angry, for man's anger does not bring about the righteous life that God desires.



and

Quote:

Matthew 5:30 And if your right hand causes you to sin, cut it off and throw it away. It is better for you to lose one part of your body than for your whole body to go into hell.



While the second verse is written in the context of sexual sin, I do believe it applies in all areas of one's life, so I'm cutting off parts of my life that have encouraged me to be controlling and selfish.

My heart is somewhere else ladies and gentlemen, it no longer belongs to my car.
