So Its a special day ( it only comes 1 time every four years so it's considered a special day :) )
Pretty average day for me... but since its such a "special day" I suppose this is the time where i pull out some random lesson from the day and end on some random happy note... but honestly I'm not finding one...
Lets see... today: I watched a friend almost get run over by a car - Praise God the car stopped and beyond hearts racing nothing else was damaged. I guess I have a better understanding of why my friends worry about me when I take risks... Good food for thought.
Otherwise today has been Kinda draining - I love listening and helping people but maybe you can relate to the desire to wanting someone to ask you the same questions that you ask them? Example - How did you test go? (You know the one you were stressing over and asked me to pray for?) Where are you going for break? Or randomly -How is your day going? (Note: Wait and LISTEN (which is different from hearing) for an answer) yeah these questions would be nice to hear...
Whatever I will be first to call myself different, or say that go to the beat of my own drum, but I do like asking these and other "random" questions - one can learn a lot from such inquires (that and just simply paying attention.) Such as today (for a small example): I have congratulated one couple on their engagement, coached a little "brother" through his first break up, listened to one gush about her first date, and on a different note I got a slight cold shoulder from one I really respect/ look up too...puzzling and honestly a little painful oh well i will have to try to sort that one out another day.
Its a crazy life but an epic one never the less. Joy and pain its all good - for what would the brightness of stars be without the darkness of night?
Don't be too timid and squeamish about your actions. All life is an experiment. Ralph Waldo Emerson
