There’s a lesson in this, right?
| A painting found in a pile of trash on a New York street sold at Sotheby’s auction house late Tuesday for a million dollars, nearly 20 years after it was stolen from a warehouse in Texas.
“Tres personajes” (“Three People”), a 1970 work by Rufino Tamayo, one of Mexico’s best known artists, was bagged for 1.049,000 dollars by a north American buyer who fought off a telephone bidder, the auction house said. It had been saved from the garbage by Elizabeth Gibson, who spotted the work while out walking one morning in 2003. |
Maybe even more than one.
The painting, even while in the trash, was valuable.
Value isn’t always recognized by people.
Somebody had to put forth effort to rescue the treasure from the trash.
Does this apply to me somehow?
Jesus rescued me from life’s trash heap.
My value to Jesus wasn’t diminished by the fact I was in the trash heap.
I need to learn to value people better (and more accurately).
I need to work with Jesus in the We Rescue Treasure from Trash business.
Can I ask what she was doing snooping through her neighbors trash?? 🙂
How do I get tickets for the Christmas play in Harrisburg?
Have a Happy Thanksgiving!! We truly have so much to be thankful for.
I don’t think it specifies whose trash it was. Besides, like the good ole saying goes: Snoopers keepers, looser sweepers. (Or something along those lines.)
I’m not sure which play you have in mind. Do you mean the Christmas pageant at Fairview Mennonite Church close to Albany? If so, just show up. No tickets needed.
We had a Happy Thanksgiving with some less than happy moments. 😀
