Just What’s Needed

It’s interesting how even when I don’t know what I need, He does. A couple of weeks ago I met Cornell. Really got a great vibe from him and we exchanged contact info and stayed in touch. Yesterday I met him and another friend of his, Jerry, for dinner.

While eating another brother, Derrick joined us. I sat and visited with strong, intelligent, well-travelled Black men. They are all a bit older than myself and retired. They all are in, what appears to be, happy and fulfilling relationships, and they are all men of God.

For me, that’s exactly what I needed to witness. The timing could not have been better.

Today, Monday, March 25, 2019, I am grateful that:

He puts the right people in the right place at the right time. It’s important to confirm my journey is the correct one, especially when it’s becoming more challenging.

I am able to recognize some of His brilliance when it happens. Years ago, I may not have been able to recognize the brilliance in four alpha males gathered thousands of miles away from their homes, living in a foreign land, thrust together by happenstance. Today, I was able to see some of His brilliance and grateful for the insight.

Everyone isn’t as shy as I. Jerry injected himself into a conversation with Kim and as a result, she and I exchanged numbers and may actually go out. Kim is incredibly stunning and works at one of the restraunts in the mall I frequent. I’d wanted to ask her out for several weeks but didn’t. Here comes Jerry and within a couple hours of meeting him, he facilitates something I hadn’t accomplished in weeks. I may need to become more bold(probably so).

Enjoy this journey. Be Impactful.
