Spotted: God

So, this doesn't usually happen but today you have the pleasure of reading two posts by me.

Today I had a God sighting. Basically I had another one of my realizations of how truly blessed I really am. So here's the situation. I was eating out with my mom and dad and having a great time just chatting away. Then I brought up how I was researching cars and what not. Then a little boy and his grandpa walked into the patio area. The grandpa then warned the boy there was a step and kept leading him through the dining area. The boy was blind. He was asking about his surroundings and talking to his grandpa and trying to understand the restaurant he was in. Here I am worried about getting a car and this kid will never drive. I almost started crying. Even my parents almost started crying. Not tears of sadness as much as tears of realization. Tears of wow-I'm-truly-blessed. Being blind is that kids everyday reality. He has to understand his surroundings with out ever even knowing what objects truly looks like. It's just a crazy thought. It made me take a step back and look at everything in my life. Not sound  Compared to so many people I have it good. But then I started thinking, God made that little boy blind for a reason. Maybe being blind isn't to the benefit of the boy as much as for the people around him. I know God had that little boy walk past me for a reason tonight. As for mine and my families blessing shock, I'm sure a lot of the people in the restaurant felt the same way.

So that's my second post of the day. Just another one of them moments when you gotta take a step back and look at your life and the world around you, take a deep breath, and say thank you to the big man up above.
