There is no reason why I shouldn't be grateful as I have been blessed so much so far.<BR/><BR/>I imagine you are right about the believer and the athiest. I don't know if the opiate would be accurate since it's possible to have peace amidst the pain, to be grateful even when things aren't perfect. I say this as one who knows denial all to well. Sometimes I have to wonder if life would be simpler if I allowed myself to risk losing everything a little more. <BR/><BR/>It's easy for me to be cynical about so many things, but we all have some faith placed somewhere, even the athiest. The longer I live the less likely coincidences seem, though. So, I don't think your encounter was a coincidence. <BR/><BR/>At any rate, I found the cab driver's comments heartening. I'm glad you were able to enjoy his company on the ride. <BR/><BR/>--MelanieMelaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11554101659049962196noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29943262.post-88863152409772212842007-11-13T08:49:00.000-08:002007-11-13T08:49:00.000-08:00i love those rare, or not so rare, encounters. the...i love those rare, or not so rare, encounters. they are truly gifts from god, in my opinion. god's way of saying, "yep, i'm here."Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29943262.post-64616141147378251492007-11-12T22:55:00.000-08:002007-11-12T22:55:00.000-08:00beautiful...hold onto those memories..they are lik...beautiful...hold onto those memories..they are like precious hugs from God's heart to your own..and..you never know when you are entertaining an angel...:)AJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06223497210884140784noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29943262.post-77307878052173669582007-11-12T22:06:00.000-08:002007-11-12T22:06:00.000-08:00sometimes when i read your blog, i am reminded of ...sometimes when i read your blog, i am reminded of 'the stranger' by albert camus.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
