I was baptized a witness at age 21 in 1976. For 28 years I lived a very introverated life. No friends no family in the truth. Never dated and never married. Pretty pathatic I know. I DA'ed myself in 2004 believing I had destroyed my social life for every. Even after leaving I could not make friends, where would I go to find friends. My way was lost.
Fast forward to December 2006. My mother just died 4 days before xmas. I had not planned to return to California to visit my family but this changed everything. I headed to CA for the funeral. Took a flight from Nashville to Sacramento CA to home. Had to stop in San Diego to change planes. Now I'm sitting at a sports bar at the airport waiting my 2 hour layover. Having to spend $8.20 for a 20 oz draft Bud. If that doesn't get your goat nothing does. Anyway there is a very nice woman sitting next to me. I really did not intend to converse but I was bored and said: "How about these prices for drinks". To my completely suprise she wanted to converse with me. We had the most plesant conversation for about 45 minutes. I mean I just met her and I could have know her for ever. I have never experience this before. So frightened of the opposiet sex. Anyway I walked away and thought, "What just happened here". I had never experienced this before. I know everyone is laughing out loud now but I live my entire adult life never seeing the other side. I really don't know if there is another side for me.
