Parking Ticket

September 14

This morning I drive downtown for a breakfast meeting. There are two parking spaces on the street near the hotel. I take the one nearest the corner so I can get out quickly.

When I return less than an hour later there is a ticket on my windshield. I parked in a no parking area and the quarters I had put in the meter were for the parking space in front of me.

A friend says, " Don’t fuss over it, or it will you cost more than the amount on the ticket." That wise tip is 2,000 years old.

"Render therefore to Caesar the things that are Caesar's, and to God the things that are God's." (Matthew 22:21)
