Today my truck broke down on the way to the area meeting. I am worried about being without it and how much it will cost. Fortunately we had roadside assistance coverage and I didn't have to pay to get it towed back in.

I had to accept things when it happened and the guys riding with me helped me to do that. They just called someone else and kept their mission to be of service. They also helped me by taking my report to the meeting.

This afternoon I realized that our mechanic will probably not make us pay for the repair all at once and that I will have a new engine probably.

I was mostly greatful that God blessed me with a great deal of acceptance.

Tonight someone called me and asked if I was going to the meeting and I discovered that I hadn't even thought about it. I was just despondent enough to be distracted. Christie encouraged me to go so I did. It was just the meeting I needed to go to. The topic was about dependance on material security. The reading centered on humility and acceptance.

While I was waiting for the tow truck I pulled out the laptop an did some writing. Suddenly the long wait did not seem long enough. My reality shifted.

I think I should drive to the country and park and pray and write more often.
