Oh, Atlanta...


So I've been in Atlanta for a few days now. Since Tuesday afternoon to be exact. And well... It's now Thursday night - almost Friday morning.

I sit in the dark while others are sleeping and snoring in the other room. I wish I had something poignant to say or profound. Sadly - I feel as if I have nothing.

God has been teaching me things about myself this week, though.

...Like how I know I could be an excellent parking attendant and fix all the parking problems at the Marriott Marquee hotel...

...Like how I always try to look at the bright side of things because life is too short to get upset about having to pick your car up, upstairs when you have trooped down to the basement. An elevator ride never killed anyone. (ok, so maybe it has, but you get my point)...

...Like how I really need to not drink so much Starbucks, and how addicted to caffeine I am...

...Like how we can be so natural, yet feel so foreign around people that are relatively new to us...

...Like how God knows exactly what I'm worried about or concerned about and has ways of calming me down and setting me straight. (I like this lesson a lot...)...

...Like how I LOVE getting caught in a rainstorm - no matter what I'm wearing or where I'm going. Life is too short to get upset because of a shower. Make the most of it... Go play in the rain! It makes a better memory...

I'm sure there are more lessons about myself and things that I want to talk about, but I either can't think of them at the moment or... I'm still learning them as we speak.

I hope you're doing well wherever your head is going to hit the pillow tonight. My thoughts and prayers are with you, and I love you.

Goodnight, all...
