Tell her the story of the two(2) angels.
2 angels sent to earth to be good samaritans. People do not know they are angels, just good samaritans. At the end of a long day helping people, they go to a rich guys estate and ask for sanctuary. Large estate, many unused bedrooms, staff, servants. The rich guy says no problem, lets them in. Does he take them to a nice room ? No. He takes them to the servants cottage where there is a basement underneath. Cold and dark, there is 2 old matresses on the concrete floor. He tells them they can spend the night there and leaves. The angels thank him.
The senior of the 2 angels finds a crack in the wall and follows it around the corner of the basement until he finds a crate, moves the crate and finds a hole in the wall. He also finds some plaster and paint and fixes the hole and crack, better than anyone could imagine. So good, in fact, you can't see where the crack and hole were. In the morning they leave.
At the end of the next day the end up at a poor farmers house. Husband, wife, 2 kids. Small house, a barn, and a cow. The cow is their main sustinence. Milk, cheese, butter. otherwise they are poor. They ask for santuary and the gracious couple offer their bed to them. The angels protest, but the couple tell them it's ok, when company or other family come over they give them their bed then too, and sleep in the barn with the cow. No problems, they have done it many times.
The angels get a really good sleep that night, much better than at the rich guys house. When they get up in the morning the family cow is dead. The junior angel is angry. He asks the senior angel why, when the rich guy treats us badly, you fix his basement, these people treat us like family, like "Kings" and you let the "Angel of Death" take their cow. They need that cow. Why ?
The senior angel says it is simple, NOTHING IS EVER AS IT SEEMS.
The junior angel is now confused.
The senior angel explains: When we were at the rich guys house, what I did not tell you was that in the hole in the wall was all of the rich guys stocks, bonds, annuities, gold, and silver. I patched that hole so well, he will never find it again.
When the "Angel of Death" came last night, he came for the wife. I gave him the cow, nothing is ever at it seems.
Tell your girlfriend nothing is ever that it seems and things will work out.
FWIW
