It's a Small World


You always hear the saying "It's a small world", and last night it hit true for me. It's so strange how life works! How is it that I was sitting around a table with 5 people, 3 of whom I have never met, 1 I met in a bathroom briefly, and the other my sister, and we all had a connection?

I don't mean a connection like we all got along, yet we truly did, I mean we all had a connection with someone we knew or from places of others we knew. Talk about the power or networking.

This "get together" was planned for me to meet my sisters coworkers, Mike, Belen, and Nathalia, as well as them to meet my new friend Natalia. Both Natalia and Nathalia are from Columbia, Belen is from Ecuador, and Mike is from Cincinnati. As we sat around the table we found out that Natalia's Dad is from the same tiny town in Ecuador that Nathalia is from (small world), that Belen looks almost identical to one of Brian and I's friend, Renee, and Mike's high school friend is a friend and frat brother of my husband.

It's so crazy that the world is so big, yet you are constantly running into people who know people you know. It's crazy how God places people in your life at one moment and then allows you to meet the "connection" later. I mean even when dealing with people from across the world. He truly works in mysterious way.
