Why a ’98 TALON is like life


Sometimes the door you want to open will not, no matter what the effort. But if you back off, have a little patience, observe and try again with a different approach, it will open.

When a head gasket blows, there is considerable angst, a lot of steam to blow off and a matter of knowing how to solve the problem. So it is with anger. A cooling off period after the initial blow up, and solving the situation with help from prayer.

Sometimes the heat doesn’t get as warm as I would like and I need to put on more layers, be patient, endure the winter cold in the knowledge that spring will eventually come. When new people you come in contact with don’t “warm up” to you from the beginning, it will take the layers of time, and love to persevere and wait for them to realize just you are like a breath of fresh spring air.

I love this car, no matter the trials it has for me. I do my best to take car of it in the hopes it will get me down many a road in the future. How are your daily travels going? What different obstacles are placed in your way. Reflect with us. Please.
