Yesterday I decided to take the trip to go to mass at Ave Maria…. to see how long it really woudl take to drive there… to go to the 7pm mass… and to finally give the church a card i had written a long time ago. It really didnt take as ling as i had been told… i had been told it woudl take an hour.. and tons of gas…
I had been to the campus ages ago… when it first opened and there was a condo open house…also checking on classes… but they didnt have an MBA program set up yet.. and then again when i hear that the law school would be movign to the campus… also i wnet on a hunt for housing.. I even found this gret condo… for some reason the builder hadnt finished it.. and it appered to be findidhed with idems that didnt match… i actually called my cousin and told him what a great find… I coudlnt buy it myself.. but i know it will evenutally be a gem… I actually thought of that condo wheile driving there.. also played a ton of music… and sang tons of songs… where no one could hera me way out there… and with really no one near by at all…….HA!
It didint really taek that long nor the huge amount of gas i thought it might…. enough said.. of gas adn time….
but even though i got there.. mind you jsuta little bit late… teh entrie town was very empty… and low and behold.. it is spring break! HA!!!!!! i found out this bit of informtioan form the one religious store that was open and the one clerk who was stil working….
The church was still open so i went inside and said part of my novena… while in the church… and there was one gentleman who was also in the church praying… i actually thought of saying hi… but didnt want to interupt while he was praying… also dint think of saying hi until after i was in my car and on my drive home…. Hummmmm he looked cute from the back of his headHA! I did get to sign in and put in a petition in writing… and also give a small donation…. and even went to the chapel to say another prayer… thn home…
I stopped at publix and got some groceries.. then a quick pick for lotto and a quick pick for power ball…. but when the lotto ticket came up it had some “extra” that would have cost 2 extra dollars…. so I gave it back and got another quick pick… so this is my question….
what if i gave back my winning ticket? I mean if there is destiny… or fate.. or whatever… and mistakes are really supposed to happen…. then giving the ticket back.. was tht the wrong thing to do? or should i have kept that ticket and then bought an extra ticket? what do you think? can youimagine… my huge financial miracle going to someone else? I hate second guessing myself…. but then.. if or something is supposed to happen…. then youcant make any mistakes.. rihgt?
anyone seen serendipity? john cusack? I jsut bought “runaway jury”…. love it…. but already own serendipity…. the idea of fate… of things happening no accidents…. things will happen no matter what… you will end up with the right person no matter who your with today…. and so on that same thought…. will youend up with teh life you are supposed to have no matter what? business will succeed… or lottery wins.. or # children? or like in runaway jury… can maen ( ie mankind) manipulate lives and outcomes….. interesting rihgt? How do you believe?
