What Happens If You Give Your Angel The Finger?

Whenever somebody cuts me off in traffic rather than blow my stack, I consciously remind myself, "That's an angel aligning me with Divine order." Possibly preventing me from getting into an accident on the road ahead, or making sure I arrive at a time that may not be according to my schedule, but causes me to cross paths with someone who turns out to be a huge blessing to my livelihood. This transforms my time in traffic from a stressing to a blessing. I understand that in the moment it's not always easy to do. The good news is, even if you act out poorly and give your angel the finger, the delay they caused will work out to be in your favor regardless. Next time you're stuck in traffic experiment with releasing the frustrating thought that this is a setback, and decide to see it as a set up for a divine appointment.

This blog post inspired a YouTube presentation
of Funniest Thing! with Darrell and Ed
of Funniest Thing! with Darrell and Ed
Which inspired this letter from a fan:
Dear Darrell and Ed:
I had just finished watching your show on YouTube about giving your angel the finger and needed to get to the grocery store before getting to a meeting by 2 o'clock. I was feeling a little rushed but wanted to get that task out-of-the-way. As I rounded the corner near the shopping center a guy, who was a bit down the block, turned in front of me into a driveway in order to turn around. I was so tempted to rush passed him once there was clearance but decided to be patient and waved him to pull out. He gave me a courtesy thank you wave, which made me feel good. I thought of you guys as I waved back at him. Once I got to the supermarket I grabbed the one item I needed and looked for a short line as I was feeling the (self imposed) pressure once again. Funniest thing, wouldn't you know, the woman in front of me saw I had only one item, and insisted I go ahead of her. I was out the door and on my way in no time. Had I not allowed that guy to pull out of the driveway in front of me, I would have missed the wonderful feeling one gets when being kind to others as well as the kindness the woman had bestowed upon me. Keep up the good work, you always inspire me.
