Reminded By a Book Sale

 That day, I felt like I had come full circle. I remembered that I wanted to participate and volunteer in the book sale back in August. At that time, I was contemplating how I could gain experience in something I was studying and felt a deep yearning to take action in some way. But nothing came through. I never heard anything back. 

Looking back, I knew that that was a hard and difficult season, what was really only the beginning. I doubted if it would even work with my schedule, how it would all work out. I am grateful it didn't, and felt like Divine Providence was protecting me, and perhaps leading me somewhere else and I distinctly felt on that day of the book sale. 'What was I thinking?' I said to myself. I'm so glad it never worked out, and perhaps it was for a certain reason since it was around that time that my interest, motivation and vison for my pathway was already changing. Maybe that's why it wasn't meant to work out, I was thinking.

It was fun to browse, and picked up and purchased some books, one of them a Russian language book. I hadn't considered relearning the language, but since I didn't really have any language materials for it, and maybe I would become interested in learning the language again, I decided to get it. 

I felt like that day was a good reminder and realization of somethings. Bringing me back to how I was feeling months prior, the journey it had been and then starting up learning Russian again after 2 years. I can only smile and recollect it all.
