I met the most amazing woman this weekend. I experienced a
“Where am I?” moment, as my best friend, her fiancé, his best friend, and I
roamed the streets of DLV (downtown Las Vegas). Our search for the building
that holds the legal certificate of marriage suddenly turned into an epic fail.
With the temperature outside at 100 degrees, my crankiness factor began to rise
and the OC bitch in me demanded that we ask a local for directions, because
roaming aimlessly no longer seemed like an option for my life.
We stumbled into a post office, because we felt it looked
“governmenty” and found an amazing lady. “Excuse me, do you know where the
Clark County building is located,” we asked the stranger. “No I don’t, but my
husband might or if not I will find it on my phone,” she said.
She literally helped us find our location and it took her a
good 20 minutes. As we waited for her help I asked her, “My friends about to
marry her best friend, any advice for her?” The lady looked up from her I-phone
and said, “Laugh, love and let it go!”
Best advice ever. I felt that this little peace of advice not only
applies to remaining faithful to someone for 20 plus years, but also should be
applied to daily life struggles.
I fell in love with a stranger, because she took 20 minutes
to help my friend and left an impression on me by sharing great words of wisdom.
We all should laugh, love and just let all the bulls@#$ go…just sayin’.
