It's 10:00 PM and the trucks that came to pick up the give-away stuff have just left. There was half a garage full of stuff (most of it mine) that is now going to support a church rummage sale on Saturday. Most of the money raised will be used to support the church's mission in Mexico.I stood in the garage and watched the tail lights of the trucks blink away into the night. I watched years of what I have collected bouncing up and down as the excited drivers chattered to each other in Spanish. The things I have released will help enrich the lives of others. I stood there and smiled as I watched it all go.
There is a time for everything, and tonight was the time to send it all away with love.
