Even though we live in the same city, I rarely have the chance to see a very close friend of mine whom I consider my mentor. Mentor, not because she is way older than me, but because she never failed to pass unto me her wisdom about life, love and God.

Before she left for a one year mission in Africa, we met at a café shop after my work. We were so happy to update each other. We still wanted to stay and chat but she was leaving that evening. Before we parted ways, she gave me “The Greatest Love Story Ever Told Bracelet” it’s a very nice piece of Religious Jewelry. Every bead tells the story of Jesus Christ. Together with it is an inspirational note which she said she got in a magazine. The note goes this way…Have you ever felt like the contents of your life have been dumped on the ground before you? That everything you believed in and depended on has suddenly turned upside down? If so, you have given a wonderful gift because now you can choose which items to keep in your life and which ones to leave on the ground to be recycled and transmitted. Maybe you have been carrying some items around for too long and the heavy load finally broke open, causing the contents of your life to scatter. Every once in a while, life seems to shake us up and knock loose a few things we have become attached to. Next time it happens, ask the angels to help you pick up the pieces.

I’m just lucky, blessed and grateful about it!
