In plain sight – or not
By Lee Ann | June 30, 2008
Last week I was in New York City, a place I’m not very familiar with that I visit just a few times a year.
I was walking down 6th Avenue just after getting a cup of coffee heading back to my brother’s place. It was early on a Sunday morning so there weren’t that many people on the street. Suddenly a woman stopped me, pointed to an ad in a newspaper for a beauty salon and asked me if I knew where it was. I looked at the address, it was on 6th Avenue and the number was very close to where I was standing. In fact, it turned out that we were just a couple of doors away from it.
The woman was very grateful and headed into the salon. I know it was Sunday, but it’s New York City.
Anyway, it got me thinking how sometimes I can be looking for the solution to a project that I’m working on and I’m just too close. Then I ask for help and bingo – the solution appears – just like the beauty salon.
It reminds me how the answers are always there, for any problem or issue that we may have. And, that’s comforting and it reminds me not to give up because the solution doesn’t come easily.
