ok totally rambling here...back to real story
so we are searching for just 1 lone jar hidden somehow way in the back, and no luck but when i start walking down the aisle theres this completely frazzled looking lady carrying, in her arms ,
a bag of onions
2lbs of hamburger
2 cans of fruit
a loaf of bread
and a box of something
she drops the onions and the fruit and i just picked them up, and i dont really know why but in that instant i was so happy to pick them up for her.me and D check out a couple more deals and buy nothing.
it occurred to me when we were leaving that i wasnt there to buy peanut butter but to interact with that lady in a positive way. God is good.
oh and icing on the cake i didnt realize until i saw my reflection in my car window that in wearing my "love thy neighbor" tee shirt

isn't it amazing how sometimes we do not realize until after the fact why we were at a certain place at a certain time?
