I meant to post a few days ago, I had a customer in the morning. A nice man who was probably in his late 30s maybe? He came in around 6~ and so we had just opened. He gave me a $100 bill and I knew I wasn't going to be able to break it that early so I just said it was on me. He was appreciative and got his coffee asked my name, and thanked me again as he left.
Hours later probably around 10~ he came back with a $10 bill. He said this is for you. You were so kind this morning. I said he didn't have to do that really.. And to that he replied with "oh I know, all I have to do is die" and so I took the money and thanked him again. Put it in the tip jar and just kinda marinated on what had just happened. It pays off to be kind. And he was right. All you really have to do is die. Because at the end of all this that's what we do. All the inbetween is just filler. What you make it. It was a good interaction that really stuck with me.
I've been pretty tired latey, working lots of morning shifts (for which I am greatful) don't get me wrong. And then spending time with friends. I've had Sophie sleep over and Alannah in ine week. As well as spent the night at Sophie's. And spent an afternoon with Dallas being artsy. I've been keeping busy. I finished yet another book. And the ending was really nice. Which is rare for me!
Let's see what else.. Elsa is gone via a few days ago. Only a week or so more until everyone comes back. So I'm getting excited. I had a moment last night at Thursday Night Market while I was standing with Sunny and Beau listening to the bands play, where all I saw was the moon. It was impossible not to see. Being as big and bright as it was. I had to point it out to everyone. But none of them were as amazed as I was.
But I felt the need to send you a message and tell you about it. Knowing you wouldn't see it for a matter of days since you are scaling a mountain and all.. But I got a warm feeling inside knowing you were looking and sleeping under the same moon. For a moment you didn't feel so far away. And as much as the lonley feeling tried to overpower the rest, I felt a lot of love for you. I felt excitement as well as contentment. Knowing that it wasn't much longer before I could hug you again. As I've been picturing the whole scenario in my head nonstop for the past few days.
Setting aside any negative or worried thoughts I could possibly conjure up for when that moment comes.
So this is me feeling happy and excited for the time we have been apart and able to spend with friends and get closer to them. This is me being positive and hopeful for keeping up with these friendships I have made stronger.
Go me.
