| This card is for Mr. Black, 
who is going through a rough patch. He is a car aficionado, and I've had
 this IO stamp for AGES, so it seemed like a good match. Growing up on a
 dairy farm, trucks like this were common. Rusted to the bone but more 
dependable than any car I've owned in my life!! Even though I might have
 to pop the clutch to get it started (while being towed along by a 
tractor) and learning to shift 'three on a tree' was significantly more 
complicated than 'four on the floor', (though not as ruinous to our 
culture as the evil automatic) it makes me pine for days past. I'm 
pretty sure Mr. Black feels the same way. Inside, there's a "Wishing you
 a speedy recovery...Get Well Soon!" which I HOPE qualifies for an 
uplifting message. If that doesn't cut it, here's what I wrote: "While 
we don't know each other, I understand a lot of what you're going 
through with your health issues. But remember, old trucks may get rusty,
 but they're more useful and dependable than ANY of today's models! So 
know that, despite the hard days, you are more valuable and necessary to
 those who love you, with each passing day!" I hope it helps. :) |
