i got a job. praise to God for that. :o) im getting paid pretty good.. so that makes me happy. i <3 that school is officially over tomorrow. Today at lunch i was sittin there and i saw a boy sitting by himself.. all alone at his table hugging his lunchbox. so sad. so i was like yall we should invite him over.. well we didnt. and so i was like thats sad, im gonna go sit with him. and i did. and i felt so bad for him because he was a really sweet guy and he told me he doesnt have very many friends and he's used to entertaining himself.. :( and it made my day that i went out of my comfort zone and sat with some guy id never seen before just because.. thats what God would have done. it made me happy to know i made someone else happy just by sitting down and talking to them.. why is it that we dont do that everyday? it made me sad when people just walked straight by him and never asked him to sit with them.. or even said hello.. i know if i was ever that person, that simple little gesture would make me feel better.. why is it that we never put ourselves in their shoes.. why is it that we are so happy with our own friends we never notice the people who dont have any.. why is that we are so dagum superficial we cant say hey to a guy who doesnt look "cool" enough to talk to.. why is that we dont do what God would do, simply because... its not "our business".. why cant we just be a bit nicer to people who need that little talk to brighten their day. and when i did that i realized.. wow, i was once those people who just walked by and said nothing cause i had my own friends and wasnt paying attention to anyone else. and i was like dang, i sucked.
and no im not talking about anyone in particular.. just something i noticed at lunch. so please dont take offense to that.
