Have you ever…
Sat down with the intention to do one thing but end up in a place that you’d never thought?
Wanted to accomplish a task but was unable to for some unknown reason?
Made plans in advance and soul filling events occur because you made said plans?
Let me tell you a short story.
I made plans to extend my trip to FETC by 2 nights. One on either side of the conference. The first night was dedicated to catching up with friends, #my53s. The second night because I strongly dislike late night flights and early morning commutes. My body doesn’t do well. The second night found me once again with friends who also stayed another night.
The first part of the second night was with Jonathan and Tisha. We had a wonderful Italian dinner and talked about many topics including some edtech. I thoroughly enjoyed it.
The second part was with Kitty. We met up after dinner and some shopping. I’ve known Kitty for 5 years and met many times at conferences and talked some outside of those times.
This time, it was different. I shared the events of the last month and the continued reflections I’ve had and written here. I was able to talk with a friend who understands. I am learning to be open and supportive of others while standing on my own two feet. I am learning that being is difficult for many adults. I learned I am not alone in finding my true purpose in life. However, I also learned that maybe the journey toward a purpose is truly necessary to fulfill my space here.
I am not here by some random chance. Nor are the events I experience a series of haphazard constructions.
My heart and soul was filled by my time with Kitty.
Our meeting was intentional.
God’s intention.
