What a day…
May 4th, 2007
Ever have one of those really great days? Seems like everything is going your way…
-woke up breathing again, which is always good
-no traffic going to the airport… i felt like i was the only one on the road
-free first class upgrade on a 3 hour flight
-found an old starbucks card in my backpack and it had enough on it for a venti americano
-saw a guy in o’hare that i haven’t seen in about 8 years, parent of a former student my wife used to mentor
-flight landed on time, bag was the first one out on the belt
-checked into a hotel, one of my old high school soccer teammates runs the place and recognized my name, gave me a free dinner coupon and a note for me that he’ll be in tomorrow and we’ll connect
-got a text from a friend saying he is thinking of me today as he knows i have a few big decisions ahead of me
-i am about to go meet with a network of youth workers for coffee and conversation around a new kind of youth ministry.
Just one of those great days! BUT it is only a little half over so I am half expecting “the other shoe to drop”, as they say. I’ll keep you posted (for those of you who care)…
