From "no where".

Isn't it strange when something totally unexpected happens out of the blue?? Kinda like how the smell of jasmine takes me back to my childhood... suddenly these chains of thought and memories appear simply by one scent.

I had two things happen today like that. The first was really odd because it happened in the bathroom at the corporate center where I work. I walked in and I smelled the scent of the love of my life. It was a cologne-ish, deodorant, manly smell (wierd in a womens restroom, yea??) that totally brought memories of him and I whurling around me. It made me miss him more than I already do... sigh. Things like this happen all the time with him... I'll be somewhere and something will be said, sung, written, spoken.. (or smelled for heavens sake) that is so specifically related to him, it's scary. Somehow, someway it always comes back to him.

The second "from no where" experience today was the 5.4 magnitude earthquake up in the Chino Hills area! I was here at work when I felt the ground shake under my feet as if a huge truck were driving by. Then I felt the building roll and shake. It was the strangest sensation... I became slightly dizzy. It was over as quick as it came, lasting 10-15 seconds or so. This is my first experience feeling an earthquake of that magnitude that I can vividly remember.

I guess my experiences today show that surprises can happen in the least likely places and times. I'm ready and willing to do what it takes for supernatural surprises and miracles to happen in my life. It might not be as far off as I once presumed... hey, the blessing could be in my lap already... I just have yet to know it (that's another story, I'll share later).
