The Lord has blessed you with a son, who has the presence of
mind, to know 'what to do' in an emergency. He also was prepared...
since he had a fire extinguisher on hand.
Then again, your 'back seat driving' was also helpful
in averting a more serious occurence.
What's the rush? Why are we always driving so fast?
Sometimes I long for the genteel days of the horse and buggy....
..when folks had time to think about where they were going....
I am blessed with two good sons. Thank you, Mother.
The fire extinguishers were not Michaels, but they kept appearing. Every time I looked up someone was crossing the super highway with a fire extinguisher!!
Michael and I both decided it would be a good idea from now on to carry one in the car.
I agree with you about being in a hurry. I long for slower days also. I think about Mother and how she walked so many miles from Jayrambati to be with Sri Ramakrishna, and humorously (to me) how once when she arrived he made her turn around and go back, and then come again, because her arrival time was not auspicious!!
