All of Life a Personality Test
Last week, my Proverbs 31 wife and I went our for a meal. It was a celebration in honor of completing her coursework for her Masters’ Degree. After our meal, we got into the vehicle, and straight ahead in the glow of my headlights, we could see the license plate on the car parked across from us.
It read: [HRY*###].
I said, “Now there’s good a license plate: Hurry.” To which my loving wife responded: “Huh?”
“There, on that license plate. Hurry-number, number, number.”
“Oh, this is a glass half-full, glass half-empty thing. I don’t know how you see Hurry in that. I don’t get that at all: HRY. I see Hurray!”
“No way. I’d never get hurray out of that.”
“Well, I’d never get hurry.” At that point, she made some reference to my incorrectness, and then we laughed.
And so it goes. My wife is ever more cheerful and optimistic than I am. God wired us up very differently. And all of life is a personality test.
