RE: Grateful / Dankbar

It's impossible not to be grateful for what got us here. Even if, many times, all that got us here were just experiences. It's not just the destination that matters, it's also the path. And on the road of life, it's a bit like the road you took with your father in the Audi 80. Without GPS. You have to trust that the destination is there. Waiting for us. Thanks for sharing your memory. It reminded me of the journeys I made with my parents, when I was not yet 18, and at the time they had a green Mini 1000. It wasn't spacious, and it wasn't comfortable either... At least for trips of more than 50 km. But the memories are forever. As for the car, I still remember the license plate today. It was from 1976 and must have gone to an old car collector. It had almost 130,000 km on the clock when it was sold. The odometer only registered up to 99,999km. It turned around. Just as our lives sometimes turn around. Cheers
