the process of being humbled...

So I have a huge dilemma, well OK in the eyes of the world it is small but to me it is a huge dilemma! I want a new car. I don't need a new car, I just want one really bad. Mine is in pretty bad shape, but it can definitely last a while longer. I am humbled more every time I have to pull up to a drive thru window and open my door instead of rolling down the window. The lady at the bank today seriously laughed at me when I opened my door to make my deposit (kinda hurt my feelings)! Or every time I have someone else in the car with me and there are dog hairs floating around (that's my own fault, I know), or every time someone else is in the car with me and I have to put my car in gear with a bobby pin or a paper clip.

I have never been one to want a fancy car, they have never impressed me. I remember as a child my family holding prayer time in the van praying it would start, and our family truck being two toned (it wasn't suppose to be that way, the paint was just chipping off)! So actually the more I think about it, I like my old car. I am very thankful to even have a car! It gets me from point A to point B and that's all I need right?! After all, if I could have any vehicle in the world it wouldn't be a sporty convertible or a big SUV, it would look more like this (I would paint it green)....
