i met a woman at the belk counter yesterday. she was beautiful.
she was probably about 65 years of age, with a cajun accent. she was born in new orleans.
when i asked her what brought her here, she said, "i came back to marry my highschool sweetheart. but he passed away."
she said, "God works in mysterious ways sometimes."
she had a marketing firm on the side.
as a young girl she had studied italian abroad.
she was a new friend on facebook.
she had a real story to share.
& I
would have never known
if i hadn't taken the time to ask.
how often do i pass people like her by in my every day life?! what rich stories people have to share, if you just ask! what's yours?
