The Start Of Something Big (cont)

So the rest of my summer turned out great. I was invited to an invitation only business seminar in which you had to pay for, but God worked it out so I didn't have to pay for anything that whole weekend. It was really great to be around a bunch of like minded individuals and learn lessons from successful business peers in the same field. There I was mingling with the rich folk as they say, and being look upon as the next wave of success. It really felt good. Work was work, I knew it what it was to me, a means to an end. I took pride in all my jobs and kept a smile on my face due to me being aware of my blessings. Females weren't an issue for me due to me one keeping busy and two me not concerning myself with it as an issue. I didn't go out much because I didn't see me being in certain places as a good thing. I was making money, living right, sticking to a daily plan, and everything was really going well.
.
I ended up finding a nice place to live with some friends before the next school year started and also added on another job. So I had 3 jobs, a nice house, and no stress at all. I really didn't know where this was headed but I was liking and appreciative of everything. School starts and I leave the 3rd shift job and continue with my main "stable" job and my part time job which just so happened to be bouncing at a bar. This job was fun to me simply because I was going to be there anyway, so I figured I might as well get paid to be there. So I still had fun, got paid, and it kept me from drinking. I also learned so much more about myself as it pertained to women in how I was really good at turning them down. It made it so easy to recognize the quality of relationships you can find in a bar. I mean I would entertain the idea of talking with some of them, but all in all, pretty much everyone proved to be a waste of time. They were interested in things I wasn't and it was really that simple.
.
September came and things continue to move on smoothly. I really was enjoying my new life, living the right way, and appreciating where and how I was living. I had no idea what would come next and like a jack in the box, I got surprised once again. My company was having a weekend long business conference and this one happened to be in my home town this time around. So I went home and ended up meeting up with an old friend whom I use to date. I didn't have my car then, so she picked me up and we went to my high school's football game. I just wanted to say hi to some people and show my face to some old friends and mentors. To show thanks I offered to pay for dinner and we had a long talk about where we were and what not. As we talked all I could do is listen to her voice and hear how it seemed as if a part of her was forever lost and I couldn't help but feel somewhat responsible for that. One thing lead to another and after a very long talk, I ended up in a relationship. Yea, just like that. I expressed where I was and what I wasn't about and what I valued and we both agreed that it may be hard considering our past, but with God on our side, I figured it would work.

With God anything truly is possible, without Him, might as well not bother...
