A BLUEBIRD BED TIME STORY

[ac7880]

Matthew, Greg's response is wrong in my opinion.

A good friend gave you a gift and asked you to enjoy it- just as he
did. Honor the mans wishes. Accept his gift and enjoy it. That is
what he said he wanted you to do. Honor the mans wishes.

Or dishonor the man, sell it, and insult him with dollars selling his
cherished coach, and give him raw dollars - minus a 10% commission of
course as a raw monetary view of the world - ruining your friendship
forever in the process.

Pay the man back with kindness, help, concern, and honor of the
friendship.

Good friends go beyond cash. Do not sell your friendship on either
giving nor receiving.
