Practicing Patience and Compassion

My Beautiful car was rearended by a teen. It was my dream car and I planned on having it for another 10 years at least. I was forced to deal with the underinsured and various shops and insurances. In the end I was happy with how things turned out. Was it better? Yes. Was it difficult to wait and wonder? Absolutely. This replacement car was hand picked by me and Celia rather than my husband which was how the first one was found. I did feel like it was the one and I did get extremely happy seeing it pull up to test drive just as I did before when I drove my First Audi. I know it sounds silly, but it really does make me happy, almost as happy as the first. I feel blessed to have gone through all the hardship of waiting and wondering and dealing with banks to get the funds. I feel a tiny bit stronger for it. I also repaired some relationship with a family member and that was good too. Was it stressful? Yes, but I made it and it went better than I thought that it would. I need to remember things work out and being anxious about it isnt going to help anything. What a beautiful end to August, I can't wait to see what the next months bring.
