Okay so I needed to get passports sorted out for my daughter and myself and have been working myself up into a bit of a frenzy because I hate government departments and I know there are a whole lot of complications wrt to my daughter. Anyway after attending the Reiki II on Saturday we learned that Reiki can transcend time – in other words since time does not really exist anyway … you can send Reiki into your past and into the future.
So yesterday morning I decided that I needed to change my attitude about this whole event and be positive. I sent Reiki to the Home affairs office with the intention that they would all feel very loved and all feel extremely helpful.
I arranged to leave early …. Went to fetch my daughter from school and the whole way there was chanting in my head that everything is going to be fine, everything is going to run smoothly and all of the people working at Home Affairs office would be happy and loving and helpful …..
I stop at the Robot – literally about 2km away from the offices … and bam … my car stalls and won’t start …. I take a deep breath and think okay I am doing something wrong… take the key out, put it in again and try again … still doesn’t start … “OH NO!!!” I shout in my head … what now … I start panicking …. Pull myself together and say okay … so now what ….
In the mean time my Hazards are on and people are still hooting like mad men behind me …even an old granny drove past and asked if I was sleeping …. I politely smiled and told her to”@$%# off” … trying to stay calm …
I was sitting there with no phone … and the car wont start …. BIG OUCH!
I managed to roll the car backwards and to try and get out of the way … but while I was rolling backwards the breaks locked … I mean really .. must some kind of “SAFETY” feature … So quickly pull the handbreak up and try the car again ….. still nothing … so we jump out the car … walk to the nearest shopping centre and use the public phone … to phone the mom … caus the dad who is normally the one who does this stuff is flat on his back in hospital … FREAK!
To cut a very long story short … although it is filled with lots of humour and so much irony … I bought a new phone … it actually had battery life ….YAY! Mom got her roadside assistance to come out and tow the car to the nearest garage …..
Drum roll ………
Turns out that I am a true woman ….. the car had NO PETROL!!!! Now that is truly embarrassing ….. and well worth a good hearty laugh … a whole afternoon wasted because I did not realize that the car I have been driving does not have what I would think is a normal petrol light … THE ORANGE ONE … apparently when its gets to the last bar on this thing … that is the petrol light …. So now we know ….
Funny thing is that while I was so engrossed in panicking about Home Affairs and the whole process that I forgot to Petrol in … I mean really …..
Oh well, at least Home Affairs all got a nice dose of Reiki yesterday … hope they all feel blessed and happy right now ….. LOL! And at least the Tow truck driver had a big laugh .. and at least it wasn’t anything really serious …..
I suppose these kind of this humble you into realizing that we need to slow down and focus ….
I asked a friend last night what the universe was trying to tell me … because this whole week seems to have been designed as some grand test … its been a tough one … and he said that the universe was trying to tell me to PUT PETROL IN THE CAR … ITS DOESN’T RUN ON AIR ….
LMAO … maybe I need to stop taking myself so seriously ….. :-)
