As I have mentioned before (and I reiterate simply because I know you aren’t listening), I am surrounded by a lot of “hidden” talent in this small town.
Especially at the coffee shop.
I guess a prerequisite for working at a coffee shop is having some sort of uniqueness about yourself. And lemme tell ya…my co-workers are definitely a unique bunch of people.
That word is open to interpretation of course.
Anyway, to the point. And yes, there is one this time!
One of my co-workers (actually, I’d call her a friend) is a small, dark haired girl who doesn’t have much to say. But man, when she does talk its always super witty and super well-timed.
Exactly how I’d like to be, but haven’t quite gotten there. Ah well, I can live vicariously through her.
What lies underneath her small, quiet shell is a world of creativity and imagination that I have never seen before. I’m lucky to have had the privilege to find out more about it during my days steaming milk and getting yelled at by the general public.
Although I hate my job sometimes (yeah, its true), the days that I get to work with people like my creative friend give me hope that it is playing some significant role in my life. Maybe I’m supposed to have this job so I can learn how to get to know people better. People I never would have given a second glance to. Maybe its teaching me to dive farther than the surface.
There’s a lot of treasure past the surface.
Take a minute to check out this treasure. I’ve included the link to her blog.
