I find it completely charming that God takes the time to carefully select the perfect people to come in and OUT of my life. Sometimes I feel like God has a to-do list with my name plastered across the top, and tells himself that I will make sure to cross every single thing off the list to make sure that my child has everything that she needs to make it is this extremely awkward world.
What brings me to this thought process? Well, many things of course, but today I swear a light bulb just went off in my head yet again. I was reading a friends blog today that she hasn't really started sharing with the rest of the world yet, but I couldn't help but smile from ear to ear at every post I read. I felt like I was reading a much needed novel that would give me a little bit more insight on the thoughts that run through my mind daily.
I must confess, there are not many people that I find have a similar thought process to my own. Yes, there are a few people that I feel have similar personality traits (S/O to all of my fellow Leos who think the world is completely theirs, and everyone else is just living in it), or there are the people whom I relate because we come off as extremely dominant in every situation, and somehow manage to become the center of attention(as if we don't strategically figure out how to make that happen), but I never discovered someone who looked through the same lenses as I do when looking at the rest of the world.
Although, the person that God so carefully wanted me to realize shared a similarity with me that quit frankly scares the mess out of me, also reminded that we handle situations much differently. I started to ask myself why God wanted me to indeed find a connection with a person that is so unique. I then quickly understood that are similarities is what was going to make our friendship stronger, but our differences were what was going to make us so much wiser.
You see, God places individuals in your life for thousands of different reasons, and I am blessed to say that I have some of the most amazing people standing in front of me, around me, and even far away where I don't see them daily. But it is truly inspiring when God reveals that you are not alone in the way that you see the world. You see, the way that one sees the world is very different from the person standing right next to them. One may see that the sky is blue, and the other may see that it is cloudy gray. But when two people see that the sky is indeed no color at all, but simply a color that can be defined in whatever way we see fit (and more than likely will be a brighter one of the choices), you can't help but smile that God has placed this person strategically in your life for you to carry out a plan together much greater than one could ever imagine.
Thank God for friends, and thank God for seeing one of my friends in an entire new light!
