Show Me a Sign
By karen | August 1, 2008
I asked.
The Universe answered.
The other day I was driving home from the store and I saw a black car. A really nice black car. I didn’t even know what it was. So I appreciated it for the moment, forgot about it and drove on home.
A day or two later I was with Kevin driving along and we saw the same car.
Kevin remarked “Wow, that is a Bentley” and I responded “Whew, a Bentley?” the question mark hanging in the air.
“yep, that there is about a $250,000.00 car”
“$250,000.00? Hmmm” and we laughed about how it “looked so darn good” and “cost so darn much”. And we happily imagined and visualized having that much money and what we would actually want to have which would probably not be a Bentley but rather a Houseboat on Lake Powell, a Grand Piano, a beautiful second home in the desert……
And we forgot about it again.
The next few days was a chorus of “There’s that Bentley again!” as we saw the same car over and again. It was fun. And as you may have figured out by now that is not the kind of car that we often see around here.
Well today as we were driving we saw another beautiful car. It was silver this time, really beautiful. And of course, I didn’t even know what it was. But Kevin did.
“That is a Maserati”
“Whoohoo, a Maserati? And the only person I know with a Maserati is Joe Walsh”
(Actually I have to admit that I don’t really know Joe Walsh. But I do know that his “Maserati does 185, he lost his license and now he don’t drive!”)
So we appreciated the Maserati and as we were driving down the hill we saw another beautiful silver car but this time I knew what it was, a really beautiful Mercedes convertible. Not a Maserati but still a beautiful Symbol of Wealth. We got into town and as we were pulling into a parking lot we actually saw another one. Another Maserati that is. Two in one day! How often does that happen around here?
We do live in a land of nice cars, but they tend to be SUV’s and minivans and the luxurious among them would be the Escalade in the freak parade. (see the funny video below for reference).
We talked about it, how unusual it was and what it meant.
Those cars are symbols of wealth, the kind of cars that many people dream of, few people own. And we are seeing them all over the place! I’m not even a “car” girl. I don’t dream of cars. I don’t covet a Maserati or a Bentley. But then again, I can’t really imagine what I would think if I saw a Grand Piano rolling down the street and believe you me I already know where every beautiful house in this city is. So how could the Universe send me a sign of a Symbol of Wealth with a piano or a house? And of course, all the decent houseboats are already at the lake.
Cars are perfect.
So we’re seeing our signs. We’re seeing the symbols of Wealth.
And I appreciate it. It couldn’t have been better.
(p.s. I really missed my writing. Today I’m focused on Love and Appreciation for the writing that I love)

Hi there! I missed your writing too
glad to have read from you again. I can relate with your post today. Just recently, my sister and I saw a very handsome BMW car, a white one that cost so much we thought with the money some people spend on it, we can already buy about four houses and we could happily leave together in one neighborhood.

Thank you! Your words remind me again that I love to write and I so love that you appreciate it too!
Focus on that “happily living together in one neighborhood” as that is where I felt your own joy coming through!!
