After worship service yesterday, I planned to shop for work
clothes at Southcenter Mall. I was surprised that the stores were closed in the
mall and the surrounding area in observance of Easter. I silently reminisced
about growing up and how the stores were closed on Sunday so all the workers
would be in Sabbath. I was delighted.
I usually am directionally challenged entering and exiting
the shopping area in Tukwila. My departure was not an exception. I made a wrong
turn. I pulled my car into Crystal Springs Park change direction. This park was
small and quiet with calming views. Of course, I wanted a photo to post on Face
book.
I parked my car next to the only vehicle in the parking lot
a big black SUV with tinted windows. I was singing away to the radio with my
window down. The tinted window came down. A young man looked at me and asked, “Do
I know you?” I replied, “No. You do now.
I took a wrong turn and apparently it was the right turn. Sometimes you need to
changed direction” He smiled and
asked, “Would you write down about the
right turn? I want to use it. It was deep.” I nodded and wrote it down. He
smiled and said, “Thanks, Professor.”
The tinted window raised and the SUV sped off.
Today's Reflection: "How many times have you made a wrong turn into a right turn with a change of direction?"
