Lock your door, then shut it. Wait a minute. That doesn't seem right. Isn't that like shutting the barn door after the horse is stolen? Who in their right mind locks their door before they shut it?
Turns out that with those little black key fob remotes, you CAN actually lock your car doors while they are still wide open. Just be sure you don't lay the keyfob on the seat or you'll be digging for your spare set of keys.
Some things change in ways we don't begin to realize. There is a potential to do new things in new ways that doesn't always dawn on those who are used to the old way of doing things. It takes someone who never learned to old habits to see things in the clear light of potential and possibility. Or vice versa.
Its like the other day, I saw a young gentleman in the parking lot trying to unlock his car door with his black remote, and the darn thing wasn't working. He tried pointing it at every door and even the trunk, pressing every little button repeatedly until his fingers must have hurt, but nothing opened. Disgusted, he took his cell phone from his pocket and started to dial a number, muttering about technology.
As he was dialing, an innocent bystander, an elderly gentleman, casually said, "I guess you'll have to open it the old-fashioned way, with the key." The frustrated man flipped his phone shut and smacked his forehead with the palm of his hand. "I can't believe I didn't think to try that!"
Its all in what you are used to.
