Meeting

Today I met another driver named John. Just so happened we both had loads to a retail distribution center and both got sent elsewhere to pick up an empty trailer. At first it would seem we wouldn't have anything in common ...
Isn't that what keeps us from opening up. We are afraid to "break the ice" with that first statement.

Just so happened he had a USMC hat on. My great opener? "Where did you get you hat?". From there we found out we had served at the same time, both were working the same schedule, both had children, both had done many other things, both knew Christ, both love kids and want to help them, and both have an interest in ebay and both think that Americans are greedy.

We sat down and shared a lunch and passed the time as friends for an hour ... Then we both got our dispatch and headed on our way.

It was good to meet you John.
