"It may be unfair, but what happens in a few days, sometimes even a single day, can change the course of a whole lifetime." - The Kite Runner
I came across that quote and something stirred. It's so true, at any moment your life can change. We are like water, taking shape in whatever situation holds us. It may be taken in the shape from a vase, a cup or even the ocean. Who knows? But change is constant and we move along with it.
When I read that quote, I immediately wanted to purchase my own copy and mark it up with annotations just like in high school, however when I got to b&n there was only one copy left and it was in a whatever condition so I didn't want to pay full price for it so I was thinking of buying it online later. One week or so later...today at a thrift shop, I found the book in practically new condition for get this, 50 cents!!! When I brought it up to the register, all the ladies around me started talking about how great the book was. It made me giddy inside.
And for the past month i've been itching to get my bangs trimmed a little because they've gotten extremely long. But I didn't want to pay $10 dollars or whatever just to get my bangs trimmed, it's not really worth it. And I didn't want to trim them myself either because one time I did, and the girl who cut my hair noticed and told me to never do it again. :( hahaha But today on campus, this salon was giving out free haircuts on ring road so I was able to just get my bangs trimmed for free! They don't look too different, but i'm glad they're a bit shorter.
I don't believe in coincidences. Sometimes i'm down and God cheers me up. He reminds me that He loves me by giving me these little surprises. He is the constant in my life & I must remember that I don't need anyone else but Him. Thank You.
