Meant to be

Something funny just happened to me and I have to share! I was straightening the books here and facing out ones that hadn’t been, for a new look. I was on my knees facing out Frank Peretti’s ‘This Present Darkness’ and the second one and I thought these are such good books even though they are older and would make a great read for someone. A customer came in the door so I stood up and said hi to her. She came up to the counter chatting about the heat and then she said I have 2 books I’m wondering if you could get for me. I said let’s have a look as she pulled a paper from her purse. She said they are older books as she handed me the paper. I looked at it and had to smile. I looked at her and said, this is too funny! She looked at me all surprised and said why? I went around the counter and pulled both from the shelf and handed them to her. She was so excited that I had 2 copies of each cause one was a gift and one was for herself! Then I told her what I was doing and thinking right before she came in. She thought it was funny too and meant to be for her today!

The Boardwalk

Victory walked along the boardwalk just as she had many times. It was just before sunset and the lights strung along the rails were already glowing. Those lights were part of what made this place feel magical to her. She loved the boardwalk most in summer at this time of day. The air was warm and perfect. As people strolled by her she observed them. Some laughed and some carried on conversations while others were alone and walked without a destination. Victory wondered what they were thinking. She slowed her pace so she might absorb it all before tomorrow forced today away.
