It's amazing to think of what it will be like. My last car gave me so many problems that for the past two years--to the date--I didn't feel comfortable driving it. It's a long story of why I kept the car for so long, but it's over now. I can hardly believe what it will be like to go wherever I want to go without anxiety.
Today I decided to make my second visit to a church service I attended last year on my birthday. I am not a religious person, but I still find so much value in different faiths. Plus, it is time to say thank you, and I know something is listening.
On the way there, the bus driver, a cute LDS girl, and myself got into a spiritual conversation. We all felt a closeness to something without identifying it through a church building. It's a meeting house, and a place to gather, but the truth is wherever you go.
Even though I am getting my new car, there will be times when I still take the bus. I do know the routes quite well by now, after all. And sometimes there are these moments of connection.
As I walked to the church building, I passed a toddler sitting on the front steps in a poorer area of Ogden. I said hi and waved, and he just watched me. Then before I was out of view, I turned back and waved again and laughed, and he started waving and laughing.
