Quotes.. They are my LIFE

Friday, April 13, 2012

this week at work i met the most incredibly man.. his name was cal packer. now i only talked with him for 15-20 minutes, but he has changed my life forever. he came in to buy some shrubs, but it was hard to know what he wanted. you see cal's vocal cord snapped and he has a hard time talking, and people have an even harder time understanding. cal told me about his life, and im glad i took the time to hear it. he told me about his wife, and how she sent him out on a mission for two years and waited till her returned. they are old now and she is in a wheel chair, but he takes care of her. he then quoted a scripture to me.. proverbs 3:5-6 "trust in the lord with all thine heart and lean not unto thine own understanding. in all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths." he was the sweetest man with the biggest heart, and i hope one day i will be able to meet him again. i hope that one day i will have a man like him, that will take care of me when im old and frail. because that is what love is really about. its about someone who is willing to do anything for you even if it hurts them. someone willing to give it their all, for all of time and eternity. he also reminded me that God can help us with anything, and if we dont know what to do he does, because he knows it all.  thanks cal for the sweet simple reminders
