Salome

Salome, a man with a grey hair topped head and a sun kissed skin color makes It hard not to smile with such a great personality. He’s a regular, at my coffee shop. BUT! He is more than just a small decaf coffee with room for skim milk. Salome, is a small blessing every morning I work. In his thick accent he says “Thank you sweet heart!” I don’t know why this regular stand out to me, but I do know he is a darling man. He has blessed my manager and I with twenty dollars for Christmas last year and just recently gave me twenty more dollars for Easter. It is the biggest blessing to have someone appreciate you getting their coffee. A simple small decaf coffee. Appreciated enough to give me forty dollars out of pure thankfulness. Salome will always be more than a small market owner and a regular at my store, but a daily blessing God sends to me every Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday!

Niche

It has crossed my mind, that maybe God has blessed every person in the world with talent, passion, a dream. Sometimes when the day is done i feel as though i haven't served a good purpose. Then again, I could be crazy, taking everything to the extreme. Well then why can't I find my "niche". Then again I think maybe God has blessed me with the talent, passion, the dream of being me? Is that possible? I believe God has amazing planes for me, the people that are around me, the places in which I surround myself in. I wouldn't call it lack of faith, rather a chance to strengthen my faith. Maybe God has blessed me with the gift of looking at things in a positive light! Who knows! What I do know, is that if there i spend enough time soaking myself in the talent, passion, and dream of our Lord, I will in turn find what God put inside of me!!
