I don’t know your name, I don’t even know your age.

You touched my heart and I only interacted with you for 5 minutes. You shared your empty glass with me that previously held tea. The dot on your forehead tells me your parents are Hindu. I wonder if someday you will be too. Will you inherit your parents shop? Maybe you’ll open up your own little business. Will you get to go to school? I have so many questions about your life and most will go unanswered.

I’m learning to be okay with all of the questions that fill my head about the people that I meet. I’m learning to trust God because let’s be honest, his plan for his people is far better than anything I could dream up for them. 

Until next time,
