stick shift

it's really interesting to me that at least 4 people i know right now really want/need to learn how to drive stick shift. something is definitely in the air this year for change and growth and learning. anyways, a friend of mine asked me to teach him to drive stick. so tonight we went out to learn. it was really amazing to me how quickly he picked it up but also i'm impressed with my ability to teach. we drove around the parking lot at big long's and i got him to get into first, second, and reverse. i realized when we started that i only had to teach him the mechanics of driving a stick shift. he already knows how to drive a car, so it was going to be really easy. i didn't really have to think of 'how' i was going to teach him. i just did it. it was awesome. i was even able to laugh at him and i apologized for doing it, but he was like 'no, it's funny. it's supposed to be fun. no stress.' yeah, so the universe and i seemed to be aligned right now. i'm doing what i'm supposed to be doing and things are just falling into place. no stress. just be the process.
