Today after a job well done, someone we worked with on a project that ended told us it was nice knowing us since we would probably never talk again. It was kind of sad since we had all come to know and enjoy each other's company. Life is funny that way. People come into our lives for different periods of time and we never know when it will end.
I see people when I'm out shopping and I think that I will probably never see them again. I see things they are buying and I wonder who are they buying it for and wonder what is going on in their lives. I sometimes wonder if they are thinking the same thing about me too.
I have been told that God has a will for our lives-a big master plan all laid out for us which already involves everything we will ever do, the people who will be in our lives and everything about us. I think about that a lot. If there is a plan for my future I wish I could look at it. Sometimes I feel like this is someone else's plan, epecially when I feel overwhelmed and mad at life or the people in my current plan. Sometimes I talk out loud to God and mention how I never signed on for this which is whatever I'm going through at that moment. At times I feel like my plan is going all wrong like I should be someone else like one of those people I see when I'm out shopping.
Sometimes I wonder if people we come across at certain points of our life will return as if they were meant to be connected to us eternally. Some people believe in soulmates, and I haven't yet made up my mind if I believe there are soulmates. Have I met mine? Have you met yours? It's hard to say and we may never know the answer.
There's a song called "While I'm Waiting". It' a christian song that is about keeping the faith while you wait for that point in your life when peace and happines find you and you are content with all things. Whenever I hear that song I wonder what it is I am waiting for and how long the wait till be...lord knows I am not the most patient person in the world.
I am thankful for all the people in my life and feel blessed that they are there. Life is complicated enough trying to figure out the path we should take without trying to figure out who we should meet along those paths. So here I am waiting like the song says and wondering how long I'll wait and who I will encounter a long the way on my path.
