That's the affirmation I have been playing with: you always get exactly what you need when you need it |
It's been that way all my life, but I rarely was thankful or even aware of it. Some of us are dense and it takes more time. Took me almost a lifetime.
I don't think all these grand affirmations/intentions that people make would work for me because I don't think I'm meant to have a million dollars - but on the other hand I'll always have what I need. (I make what is considered a lower middle income in the U.S.)
One good specific example:
A number of years ago we needed a vehicle for my wife to go to work. Didn't have the money, but my wife's father happened to sell a small family beach house and distributed the money to the kids - we got just enough to get her a good car. Her Dad died a few months ago. Last month, we found out her car (same one) now needed a new engine, and the engine in my motorcycle needed to be rebuilt.. A week earlier, we'd gotten a check from a life insurance policy from her dad - it was enough to fix both vehicles plus enough to pay our taxes this year. Seems her Dad was watching out for her the whole time, in a way.
We had finally got a small wad of cash to invest for retirement but had to spend it. But I don't care in the least - I know now that we'll probably never be wealthy, but we'll not starve either.
