Why can't other people be as spontaneous?

I know. It's their choice as it is your choice.

And, yes, I know about daily responsibilities which encompass most of my days.

Even so, I embrace life each morning as an adventure knowing it could be the last.

I welcome whatever comes my way, especially special serendipities that find their way to me.

I am human, flawed, and not perfect myself.

So yes, I do get upset with others periodically if I believe they could/should be doing something else. Not my call. Not my business. But I am finite until I reach the promised land.

This morning I had a dress fitting, hit the grocery store and did have a long laundry list of other things to do before I got a very unexpected call from a dear friend saying they would be in the neighborhood.

I embraced this opportunity and rearranged my day to spend just a few minutes with them.

I really wish not only this person but a few others would realize that the journey along the way is actually the major accomplishment, not the final outcome.
