9/13/13
Who says Friday the 13th is an
unlucky day? Today has actually been the luckiest
of days with many wonderful signs. On the way
to work a profound message on the car next to mine... “Change lives, start
with your own.” WOW! Amazing advice and so true. At Starbucks the friendliest, most helpful barista who
really knew her customers by name and by their favorite coffee drink. I told her, "it’s a great barista who
knows her customers.” She told me she
had lost her job with the county and ended up having to work at Starbucks. She
said at first it was really hard because she had never had to do that kind of
work before, even when working her way through school.
But, she said now she sees her job as a blessing because she is able to "truly
connect" with people, something she said "you can never do when going about your normal
life." And, she told me the work keeps her
really busy which keeps her “in the moment.”
WOW – so profound. I told her she
was blessed to be aware of such a state of mind and that clearly that is why she is so happy. She told me I made her day…but she is the one
who made mine! On the way home I passed
a taxi, name on the cab was “New Life”. Could there be a more clear sign of being on the right path? Friday the 13th...a truly lucky day.
