this evening i went to a few stores and got some awesome deals... as pictured in the amusing little illustration below...



we are still shorthanded in the deli, making things sort of difficult in the mornings. too bad heather, for some reason unknown to me, HAS to have such a full schedule in school. some people make no sense to me... i guess im just a completly different sort of person... a lady comes rushing into the deli this morning all frantic and she acts all crazy while ordering and after she orders she asks how long it will take then she coments "im sorry, im just in such a big hurry. arent we all these days? " and then she chuckled a bit. i wanted to reply to her, "actually, im in no hurry at all." becuase im not.

i dont belive in most goals anymore. i dont like to plan ahead too much. i like to take life as it comes and leave my schedule open and i love to be flexible. to me thats how i can get the best out of life. when im quiet, i see Gods daily blessings.

stop rushing around. calm down. take life a little slower. look at small red berry bushe growing out from between the stones of a wall surrounded by snow. i bet everyone else passes that little bush by. but i studied it and marveled at its beauty.

slow down.
