While riding to work one day......
While riding in a taxi one day to work, I sneezed and the taxi driver politely said, bless you.
He went on to say that sometimes he is worried about saying that because these days, you can offend anybody.....
Then I asked him if he thought God sometimes aligned things, good things to happen for us. For instance, 40yrs later me working on the same road that my mom worked on and in the same type of business. I'd felt blessed this had happened in my life, felt I was following in my mother's footsteps and happy to do so.. so the conversation about God and come up.
Now I had wrongly assumed that he believed in God because he had said bless you. Then he told me that he did not believe in God. he told me that he did not believe in anything that he cannot see. l am one to let people believe what they wish. And so I said I only have one thing to say about that. And then I will shut up. And he said what's that?
I said you can't see the wind but you can feel it. and he said good point. very very good point. And he said thank you. I got out of his car and went to work.
It felt good.
just wanted to share!
