It's the Little Things
I'm not a big fan of chain e-mails and rarely will I read it if I see a FWD: next to it. But this one, I couldn't pass up. It was entitled, "The Little Things." And as a firm believer in TIMING and the cliche quote, "what's meant to be, will be" I had to read it... and I'm so glad I did.
As you might remember, the CEO of a company survived
9/11 because his son started kindergarten.
Another fellow was alive because it was
His turn to bring donuts.
One woman was late because her
Alarm clock didn't go off in time.
One was late because of being stuck on the NJ Turnpike
Because of an auto accident.
One of them
Missed his bus.
One spilled food on her clothes and had to take
Time to change.
One's
Car wouldn't start.
One couldn't
Get a taxi.
The one that struck me was the man
Who put on a new pair of shoes that morning,
Took the various means to get to work
But before he got there, he developed
a blister on his foot.
He stopped at a drugstore to buy a Band-Aid.
That is why he is alive today..
Now when I am
Stuck in traffic ,
Miss an elevator,
Turn back to answer a ringing telephone ...
All the little things that annoy me.
I think to myself,
This is exactly where
God wants me to be
At this very moment..
Next time your morning seems to be
Going wrong ,
You can't seem to find the car keys,
You hit every traffic light,
Don't get mad or frustrated;
It May be just that
God is at work watching over you.
So, may God continue to bless you
With all those annoying little things
And may you remember their possible purpose.
Tomorrow, I encourage you to embrace whatever life throws your way. Untied shoelaces or missing the EL you ran a block to catch-- Bring it on, life (-:
O' and to the random man who paid me one of the sweetest compliments today, thank you-- more men should be like YOU.

Favorite song on the album...
I think a lot of people will feel or have felt this same way at one point or another...

Mr. Marley said it BEST.
I came across this quote recently and while I couldn't believe my man Bob Marley said it, I was instantly intrigued by these words:
"You may not be her first, her last, or her only. She's loved before she may love again. But if she loves you now, what else matters? She's not perfect, you aren't either & the two of you may never be perfect together. But if she can make you laugh, cause you to think twice, and admit to being human and making mistakes, hold onto her and give her the most you can. She may not be thinking of you every second of the day, but she will give you a part of her that she know's you can break: her heart. So don't hurt her, don't change her, don't analyze and don't expect more than she can give. Smile when she makes you happy, let her know when she makes you mad, and miss her when she's not there."
— Bob Marley
All I gotta say is, what a man.
