So... I've been studying medieval philosophy all day. I was getting a teensy bit stressed, and then I went downstairs at 4 pm to make dinner for my house (sloppy joes, homemade cornbread, fruit salad, and potato wedges). I knew I'd probably be downstairs and busy until at least 9 pm, 'cause we had a guest for dinner (my Aust. Hist. prof) and then we had a long meeting after. So I'm cutting up fruit for the fruit salad, and my roommate comes down and tells me that somebody left something for me on my desk, and that I should go check it out. soon. Well, we're right in the midst prepping dinner, but I manage to run upstairs for a minute, and what do I find?
A bouquet of Oriental lilys (they smell super good and are gorgeous... I think I just discovered my future wedding flower) and an 'anonymous' note that says, "Katie, Good luck on all you finals. I'm sure you'll do great! Love you!! <3 <3 ".
And that pretty much made my day. Such a random act of kindness, totally reminding me of God's love and that I have friends who love me (which this was extra special, because she knew that I'd never received flowers before), even though I may forget that sometimes. And that even though I worry about stuff, God finds a way to make it okay.
So that's my story. Have a wonderful day!
