The hubby finished work early today so we decided to take Gavin to the Gardens in Midvalley. Ordinarily, the hubby and I don’t like going anywhere within a stone’s throw of Midvalley because we feel the place is poorly designed and a traffic jam magnet, especially on weekends and public holidays. Since it was officially a working day, we thought we would be quite safe. Unfortunately, it appeared that plenty of other people thought the same thing. We got stuck in the hairiest traffic jams inside the car park, of all places. You would think that a place as swish as the Gardens would have some system of monitoring the number of cars entering the car park so that the machines would stop allowing cars to enter if the car parks were too full.
I digress… We drove over to the same spot we had parked the first time I took the hubby to check out the Gardens. It was packed. The hubby exclaimed, “I forgot to think about the parking spot!”
Several times since I showed him The Secret, he has used the visualisation of a parking spot to help him get one immediately upon arrival to a place. I guess we’re still not entirely geared towards using The Secret automatically because I didn’t think to visual a parking spot either. We drove around and around and I thought really hard about a scenario where we would get a parking spot. Since I could count the number of times I had been to the Gardens on one hand, I found it difficult to visualise a parking spot because I wasn’t familiar with the parking layout. In the end, I decided to try a compromise and I visualised some people walking towards their car just as we were driving up.
I thought really hard but we were stuck in a deadlock and the hubby was getting impatient. When we finally cleared the cars, the hubby saw an exit sign and said, “Let’s just pay the parking and go somewhere else.” He pulled the car up in a temporary spot while he got out to pay the parking. Just as he stepped out of the car, three ladies were walking out and pointed out their car just five meters away from where our car was. We were the only car in the area so it was ours!
Yeah, yeah, I know, it could have been a coincidence, but then again, perhaps it was the Law of Attraction in action?
