Okay, so today is one of those days where I just have to scratch my head and think to myself, “Why did HE put me right HERE right NOW.”  Have you ever had one of those days?  I am absolutely convinced that he puts things in your lap.  It happened to me. Today.

Something new you may or may not know about me.  I am committed to my alma mater, Aurora Central High School.  Like one of those booster parents gone wild.  I love Aurora Central so much, I think  because it’s the only school I was able to start and finish at — a continuum in my life.  So I’m there a lot.  Whether it’s because I am working on the Future Fair, prom dress sale, alumni meeting, sporting event, or simply hanging out with the young people.  I’m there. I was there today, for a purpose totally different than what I think I’ve ended up with.

Today I made a connection with a young person, because we’re both Trojans and because we’re on a similar walk — though from vastly different perspectives.  Here’s what I think, HE put this in my lap — what comes of it, maybe the moon, and maybe just being connected to this person to be there.  Here’s what I know.  I am following the path that’s been laid before me.  I’m not sure where it twists, turns, or forks, I know it will, the path, and I will trust in him. HE won’t put anything in my path that with HIM I can’t do.

There’s just so much more I want to say, about connection, about how paths seem to intertwine, about my faith in a GOD that is so big, about what you see when you stop and look in to the eyes of a young person, the stories often told, without saying a single word.

Pray, or send great vibes, or meditate…for the next step in journey which at every turn surprises me.
