Random Thoughts

Sometimes in life we find ourselves staring up at the heavens screaming "Why" to a god that doesn't answer. All the little things and the big things that just don't go our way seem to add up. And we content ourselves to know that no matter how bad things are they could always be worse. We could be homeless or jobless or we could lose yet another person that we love. Several weeks ago I ran into an old friend that I hadn't seen in about 12 years or so. I found myself answering the question "what would it take to make you happy - do you even know?" Of course, I know. I spilled out my list. And in the last couple of weeks I've watched my list come to pass. I got everything on it. And I'm happier than I think I've ever been in my life. So I was thinking that maybe sometimes God doesn't give us what we ask for but forces us to wait for the better that comes along.
