My Jeep
Submitted by: Joey G.
Salt Lake City, UTI'm a very lucky man to have my beautiful wife Iris and two amazing children Joseph (10) Mariah (2).
My wife Iris has always told me I had “It”, and it came so easily to me. She has been telling me about The Secret for years and delivering the message to me through her stories. I have wanted a jeep for years, Silver Rubicon, soft top, 4 door with a lift, and huge tires. Iris has been telling me there has been no need because I have a company car. She was telling me about a vision board, and me being huge into electronics, I decided I would put up a wallpaper of the “My Jeep” on my phone, tablet and computer.
I started searching the local websites for Jeeps that fit this description, a few weeks later I found “My Jeep”, I called Iris and showed her the ad. As I was talking to her, two of the exact jeeps matching what I wanted were on either side of me driving down the freeway (if this isn’t LOA, I don’t know what is). I placed a call to the gentleman selling “My Jeep”, we talked about price, why he was selling it, and every other detail I could think of. I kept hesitating to pull the trigger because I would have to drive 3 hours from where I live to see the jeep and other plans seem to keep popping up to where I couldn’t get up there.
Saturday came, and he told me somebody was offering him less than he wanted, but he would try to hold it. Iris told me, “If it’s meant to be, it will be yours”. I was bothered by her positive outlook on “My Jeep” going to somebody else, but I still told him, sell it. I was very happy for the person that bought it, because I knew how happy I would have been with it. I started searching for “My Jeep” again, and found something completely different. Iris told me not to settle. I kept searching, and this time it had to be a misprint, but the same jeep, “My Jeep” was back for sale not 3 hours away, but this time, 10 minutes away. I called and started working the details out, he was selling it because his wife couldn’t drive a manual transmission, his loss, my gain. We started to get everything worked out, delivery of the vehicle, payment…
Thursday March 8th came, 3:00 P.M. I called to confirm he was still selling. 6 P.M. came, and the call I was not wanting to get, “Joey, the other jeep I was looking into sold, I can’t sell this one”. I totally understood, and was not shocked by the call. Iris again told me, it came back once, if it is truly yours, it will come back. I was happy he got to keep it. Friday March 9th afternoon, I received a text message saying he needed money, and if I was still interested, the jeep was mine… 5:30 came, and “My Jeep” was finally where it was supposed to be, in my garage and I owe it all to my wife Iris, and The Secret. Thank you!
