So it's Sunday

Being Catholic, I went to Mass and had my Blessed Palm Leaves (It's Palm Sunday).


I am in a "good girl mode" , I could almost envision a halo around my head. When I do the sign of the cross I envision every hand gesture to be sprinkled with a beuatiful bright light and like She-ra :D, from the top of my head , I see a cascading river of beautiful lights to transform me into a better person..:D


.....then I went to Barnes and Noble and read up a little bit on Saint Paul, World History for Dummies, Spirit Guides , Parnormal etc.


So when I returned my books, I became interested in the Eastern Religion section and just when I was about to leave, a young man said hello to me. And I did too and was about to pass him when he stopped me.

I'm thinking , there is no way this young man is hitting on me, I'm way too old for him hehehe.

But then this beautiful soul has asked me if I have any prayers? And , I let my anti-social self win over and I just wanted to be out of there and I said, " Well...world peace." and then he said, " Peace for yourself or world peace?", I said " Word Peace." then he said " Would you mind if you pray with me for world peace?"


and you know what I said?

"Yes I do mind." with a smile...what the heck is wrong with me?


Here I am trying to make better of myself and I turn away a kind soul with only the intention of praying with me for world peace? In the Eastern Religion section of Barnes and Noble...

He continued on and I continued on but as I was walking away , I keep saying in my head " I'll pray for you and with you and I am so sorry."

I keep beating myself up to it up until the drive home. I pray that these great souls like him will not be discouraged by people like myself - who are caught off guard by their good intentions. I pray for God's continued blessings and kindness and I want to ask God to let this kind soul know that I am sorry for being a silly human being.
