Life always throws us a curve ball.
All the plans were set. My house was in order, Kitty was fed, Suitcase was packed and my Uber was called. I often rely on Uber when I travel. This time my driver, Jose showed up at my door ‘Quince Minutos Tarde!’15 Minutes Late! He was a friendly guy and as soon as I spoke to him in Spanish he decided to talk and he didn’t stop. He told me that he lived in Miami for 25 years; however he spoke very little English. Every time he spoke to me, he slowed down and seemed to catch every light, but I finally got me to the airport but 2 minutes too late to check my bag; which meant that I couldn’t fly unless I separated from it. Too bad! Sing the Blues? Nope! The agents at the counter were so sweet and they tried to do everything they could to accommodate me! They booked me on the first flight out the next morning and didn’t charge me a dime!
Some people get bummed out at situations like this but I usually take it all in stride. Instead of going home, I called a friend to meet me for dinner, had the Uber drop me off at a quaint little restaurant that I have been meaning to go to for a while. The waiter was so charming, the food was delicious and the way it was served was like a Swiss Watch. It was as if he was a Conductor in an Orchestra. In fact it was one of the most enjoyable meals I have had in a while since I was in Europe this past August. It was a leisurely sweet, cozy dinner in an intimate restaurant that had only 8 tables. I then went home, got a good night’s sleep and was out first thing in the morning and flew to my destination smoothly!
Sometimes we want to control what happens and at times the Universe gives you a test. Can you be flexible and open in Body, Mind and Spirit? If you can, this will keep you Young,Vibrant and Flexible!When situations arise that are out of your control you have a choice to either act or react, which one do you think works best?
I wish you all the Best in your Health, Wealth and Happiness for 2020 and Onwards!
