When my wife picked me up at the used car dealer where I sold the Honda her first question was, "Are you OK?"
It was a wonderful question for two reasons. First and foremost it was a moving demonstration of her concern for my mental and emotional well being. Second, because I had been thinking about it while waiting for her I was able to tell her honestly that I was just fine.
And I was and am. I really liked that Honda. It was as tricked out as a 2008 Accord could be. Navigation system, bluetooth, voice command, SiriusXM, line in hook up for an mp3 player, dual climate control. Great car - it was like getting into the cockpit of a small jet. Great instrumentation, lighting at night was superb. Great little car.
And it was easy to part with. That surprised me a little. But I didn't feel any regret. Selling it was just something that had to be done quickly and efficiently - we simply couldn't afford the payment anymore. So I sold it, easy. Very pragmatic decision. Made me feel good that I was able to act without regret. Useless emotion when it comes to a car anyway.
