my mindset changes to *can do*, when i'm giving

[oai]

recently, i've been helping the family look for a used car for my 18 y.o. brother. while on the hunt, i was always thinking "we could do better" in terms of how the car looked, its condition and price. finally, we got the perfect car just fri., & it seem like it was sent from heaven per request. my brother said it was EXACTLY what he wanted. i actually got into an argument with the family, when they really wanted to get another car... because they got fed up with searching, and it was the most descent car we've seen in a while, but i wanted to wait it out. and bam, the next day, the perfect car was there.

with that experience, i'm now wondering why am i able to wait out for "something better" and be even *sure" that something better will come along, when it's for someone that i love? it's weird.

because if were looking for a car for myself, i think i'd just go for anything with a good price. i wouldn't "wait out for my dream car."

why is it that i have this "can do anything" mindset, when it comes to those i love and yet i kind of just "settle," when it comes to me? :confused: it's like i have no drive to do anything for myself.

Don't give a Gift that you would not want yourself, that said, you wanted the Best for him. Faith played a part also as patience did. So you waited it out for him and it Thankfully only took and extra day.

As for yourself........There's a comercial that sings this Song..........I WANT IT NOW and often it's hard to hear the tune playing........wait.........Wait...WAIT. ME as for getting something for Myself...I can't hear ANLYTHING but I WANT IT NOW.

You're a Great Sister......In Joy the Good times.
