Last spring, I was walking in a park. A short distance ahead of me, were a mom and her three-years-old daughter. The little girl was holding onto string that was attached to a helium balloon.
Suddenly, a strong wind took the balloon from the little girl. I guessed she would scream and crying. But the little girl turned to watch her balloon go skyward, she said, “wow!”
I didn’t realize it at that moment, but that she taught me something. Later that day, I received a phone call from my friend who had unexpected problem. I felt like answer, “Oh, what should I do?” but, remembering that little girl, I said “Wow, that’s interesting. How can I help you?”
One thing is sure that life is always unexpected problems. But we can choose to be frustrated or fascinated. No matter what the situation, a interesting reaction will always beat a frustrated ‘Oh, no’. So the next time we experience life’s unexpected situation, remember that little girl and make it a ‘Wow!’. The incantation always works.
