It's still out there, quiet and waiting...

Today, I stopped at McDonalds for breakfast (since I forgot to go to the grocery store yesterday) and when I got up to the window to pay, the cashier informed me that the elderly gentleman in the car ahead of me had payed for my meal.

I'm still having my "quarter-life crisis" or what I'm affectionately calling my QLC and random kindness from a stranger just... I don't know. It was what I needed, I think, because I've been thinking to myself lately nothing I'm doing is resolving my QLC. Am I not thinking about it enough? Am I not trying hard enough to change my life? Am I not praying correctly? There are times when I just don't know and I start to worry that I'm losing faith in things, and that's something I don't want to do. I always try to have faith that things will eventually work out. If I don't have that, then what's left?

So, to the gentleman in front of me this morning - you drove away before I could even wave, but I wanted to say thank you for being kind when you didn't have to be. I still don't know what to do about my QLC, but you made me feel better about things in general, and I needed that. So, here's to you, Mr. Ninja-Breakfast-Buyer. ♥
