Today I had to go to the tag office to renew my tag, get a title reprinted and change the address on my license.
To me the tag office is as horrible as the dentist.
Both tend to make you wait to long, only to tell you that you either have more cavities or not enough proof of being you.
Both have tons of strangers that are forced to sit in uncomfortable chairs, waiting for the inevitable.
Both are typically filled with workers that can't stand to be there and let you know it!
And both tend to cost way more than you thought.
For some reason, today was different. And I think my attitude played a major role in my experience...
There was hardly anyone there waiting and when I was waiting, I had a super conversation with some new parents and their glowing toddler, Jada.
When I was called, the woman that helped me, Julia, was really down to earth and took care of everything I needed - no running back to the car and having to get some other paperwork.
And all of the staff there was laughing and having a fun time.
Oddly enough, a trip to the tag office was not hell! Can you believe it? I left feeling nearly uplifted. As I continued to think positively, I noticed that I every light I hit was green on my trek home. I received several nice texts and calls and I just felt great. The fun continued when I got to my new place and had a conversation with one of my nosy neighbors who actually offered for me to chill with her if this storm gets bad.
As soon as I walked up to my door all I could think about was how each of those little things made me happier, therefore making the rest of my day even better!
Perhaps the little things are self created by the positivity that we put out there. The more we give to the universe's glowing light, the more we'll get back.
Whether it's a dentist office or a tag office or whatever task you may dread, enter the situation without preconceived notions and see what happens.
You may be surprised!
Much love,
Jess
