Day 254 ~ Monday

I had the strangest thing happen tonight....

I was sitting on a couch in Peck Hall at school waiting for my friend that I had driven with to get out of class.  I was attempting to study for my LSAT but instead I was really trolling facebook for anything interesting.  Because the night classes all let out at different times people were periodically walking through the lobby where I was sitting. 

I noticed a young woman with a beautiful Muslim headdress and dress ( I don't really know what those things are called ) standing near the restroom and appeared to be waiting for someone.  She had her phone held to her ear.  I simply noticed how beautifully she was dressed and then returned to scrolling through my friends' statuses on my phone. 

All of a sudden I glanced up and she was walking toward me, but she was staring at me.  I mean really staring at me with this super intense gaze... I had never been looked at like that before... As she approached, she got much closer to me.  She was well inside my personal space bubble as she rounded the corner toward the stairs... It was kind of weird.  Then I noticed she wasn't staring at my face... she was staring at the huge silver cross I was wearing around my neck.  It took me a second to realize what she was looking at.  It almost felt like she wanted to ask me a question, but she was afraid or something.  She kept her phone pressed to her ear the whole time she walked passed me, but I never heard her say a word into the phone.  She went by and I sat there trying to figure it out for a second, and when I looked over my shoulder to see where she had gone she was no longer there.

I would loved to have been with it enough to ask her what she was thinking.  Unfortunately... as usual... my mouth catches up to my brain about 10 minutes too late! LOL  What if I had gotten the opportunity to pray with her.  Wouldn't that have been amazinggggg!
