Gift

 

Sometimes, stress or trauma can bring out a person’s “gifts”; unexplainable things they can do, or know, that most people can’t.

She was thinking of that, lately.

Certainly, there was stress and trauma in her past, but…why this?

Starting in her early teens, she knew the make, model and year of any car she saw. She was not a car buff. Her dad and brother were not car buffs. And yet, she knew.

As her life improved, her “gift” faded, and was eventually completely gone.

What an oddly specific and not very useful survival tactic, she thought.

So. Thanks, Universe?
