Destiny of Books
So yesterday I went to this thrift store with my sister to see if i could find some cool new clothes and we were walking around enjoying the time and i was checking out the bookshelf...then i saw this book which was the second of a two part series called "The Sacred Journey of the Peaceful Warrior"...you have probably heard of it....well so i went home and last night I started reading it and it was really good...i really enjoyed it so i was like "Hmm..i need to buy the first one in the series called "The Way of the Peaceful Warrior" you have more likely heard of this one....
That brings us to today, my grandmother called and wanted to go to this other thrift store and as this is our favorite pastime, i was like "but of course" so we traveled across town after stopping for food at my personal favorite...the Brazilian Bakery (amazing! and they always ask me why I come in, as I am the ONLY white american i have ever seen in there) anyays...tangent....so then we were off to the thrift store and as usual i do my round...furniture, clothes, shoes, purses and then books last as they take longer.....so i went down every row and I was like "Wow, i really want to buy The Way of the Peaceful warrior, it would be amazing if I could find it at a thrift store" ....but to no avail....so i was leaving and i turned the corner and ALAS there it was lying face up right where I could see it waiting for me to pay the $ .50 to take it home.....
and it was destiny.....my books found me.....

Somehow, missygirl, grace follows you.
Miss you!
whoa, that's some twilight zone magic working. or perhaps thrift store magic. it's one of my favorite past times, too, by the way. :)
I LOVE moments like that. I happen to believe you made it happen by stating your intent... our friend in common is becoming a master at it.
