Howdy Peeps!
You know, we live in a society where we have instant gratification for most things.
- You want a cup of coffee, theres a coffee shop on most corners, like the st augustine coffee shops you’ve always wondered about
- You need money from your account, theres an ATM machine on the corner beside where you get your coffee
- You need WiFi, you go get your money from the ATM machine, go get your coffee and sit in the coffee shop because they most likely have free WiFi.
Well, what if there isn’t a coffee shop or a Coffee Shop Franchise like a Just Love Coffee Cafe on every corner. And what if WiFi isnt as prevalent where you are? Then what? Coffee shops aren’t only good for WiFi. The majority of them also have bright lighting and direct sunlight coming in from the glass storefronts they have. The storefronts, from Industrial door company and others, can often be inspiring, making them a brilliant place for working. Most coffee shops almost invite you inside! That’s why not having any on the corner of your street can have a negative impact on your day.
This has been my experience as of late, mostly with the lack of coffee shops. I look at it from the perspective of what is the lesson from all of this?
I have gotten to the point when the connection starts slowing to a crawl (because I’m using a connection through my phone), thats OK. I gently close my laptop and go do something else for awhile. If it comes back faster later, great. If not, thats OK too. Then Ill just pack up the laptop and go find the coffee shop with free WiFi and sit for a spell.
I look at it as, maybe someone there, in the coffee shop, needs some healing and Im meant to be there for them. Or, maybe Im supposed to meet someone there. Or, Im just needing to be in a different location for awhile. Maybe I need to try a different blend of coffee, (such as the ones here http://ironandfire.co.uk) thats only available at a certain coffee shop. Who knows? I am just going with the flow and letting life lead me where it wants.
It sure makes things that could be frustrating, not seem so frustrating.
Today, while at the AZ-MVD getting my AZ Drivers License and new plate, I had a smile on my face most of the 1+ hour I was there. I felt I was where I needed to be for that time. Going with the flow just makes life easier. Being happy where you are, wherever that is.
Do you have things you get frustrated over, trying to rush through them instead of being where you are?
Enjoy the moment, smile, no matter where you are, no matter what situation you are in. Where you are is where you are meant to be. Because if you weren’t meant to be there, you’d be somewhere else, doing something else. 🙂
Angel Blessings to you.

PS While getting this blog posted, the internet slowed to a snails pace just bringing up the site to post it. So with a smile, I will go start my laundry and come back in a bit. 🙂
