Glimpses

After this post you may think I am sentimental nut.
Thats okay :)

So, I am one of those people is really big on equality,
despite circumstances,
past races,
social norms,
economic classes,
medical setbacks etc.
I love when people break the chain and do something different,
something that goes against the grain for a greater good,
something that goes against their "role",
something that creates a path for someone else to be brave,
to be themselves.

Well, the other day I was just sitting in subway enjoying a sandwich
and some pink lemonade-
when I noticed this elderly couple walk through.
To be honest at first they looked kind of lost.
But I noticed something and I just stopped.
They were a interracial couple.

It's pretty common in this day and age to see interracial couples,
but to see an elderly couple isn't.

Then walked in their daughter and turns out they were taking a trip to the mountains.
I just sat back and smiled and thought to myself-
How cool is that?
Two people who did what in their time was "wrong",
but went against the grain for love.

Yes, I may be looking into this too much-
but just think about it.

One day maybe their won't be any races and we will all be one.
Maybe God intended it to be how it is,
I don't know.

But I do know I am loving the little glimpses in the every day scenes.
It all really is quite cool when we stop and look around.

So look around today,
try to see something differently.
Look through your eyes,
not societies. :)
