As Im sitting the airport, I can’t help but remember the opening scene in Love Actually. The opening quote goes like this :
“Whenever I get gloomy with the state of the world, I think about the arrivals gate at Heathrow Airport. General opinion’s starting to make out that we live in a world of hatred and greed, but I don’t see that. It seems to me that love is everywhere. Often, it’s not particularly dignified or newsworthy, but it’s always there - fathers and sons, mothers and daughters, husbands and wives, boyfriends, girlfriends, old friends. When the planes hit the Twin Towers, as far as I know, none of the phone calls from the people on board were messages of hate or revenge - they were all messages of love. If you look for it, I’ve got a sneaking suspicion… love actually is all around.”
Some people in the airport are flying out for a business trip. Others are flying home from vacation. While others are taking last minute adventures to get away from everyday life. But there are some, me included, that are flying to see the people I love. My family. I can’t wait to see Nate & Shauna. This weekend is going to be awesome and it will go by way to fast. Happy Birthday to Mom. What could be a better birthday gift that spending it with your whole family??
I better get to eat at Chicken Ruths.
