Thinking Differently

7/3/2011

I have been working on thinking differently.  I have had to be very intentional about it and practice it.  This week it was put to the test when my car overheated. I found a garage close by and they said it was my water pump and all that goes with replacing it.  Seven hundred and fifty dollars.  I didn’t have the money.  But ... Rather than go to my place of despair, i decided to think about it differently.  So I thought, I wonder how this will all work out... i took it a step farther and thought I can’t wait to see how this will all turn out.  I called a friend to ask her hubby if i was getting ripped off.  He said, “No, in fact if you will have them do it rather than me i will pay the bill and you can pay me back when you can”.  Problem solved.  Not the way i would have planned or chosen.  I hated being bailed out but i couldn’t afford it.  I told my friend how bad i felt that they had to help me and she said “are you kidding? Thank you for an opportunity to help”.  That is what friends are for.
