I have a low patience threshold at the best of times but today was the limit.
Blah, blah, blah ... vision statement ... blah, blah, blah, ... synergistic thinking .... blah, blah, blah ... I haven't really achieved anything but look at my wonderful blue sky thinking ... blah, blah, blah ... look I can do Powerpointless presentations with transitions and dull text ... blah, blah, blah.
And all this when I should have been catching one of my rare evening trains home.
So afterwards I strode to the station, fuming, muttering as I do about the self-inflated oxygen wasters in that meeting, when lo and behold a direct train to my home town had been delayed 15 minutes by some missing driver and was waiting just for me.
I say lo and behold because it felt vaguely Biblical. "And lo God did provide a train for his faithful servant."
Of course I don't really believe God did that just for me, particularly as my muttering was not full of blessing, but it was nice to have a train anyway, so thank you Lord for the way it worked out.
This blog is a bit devoid of spiritual content at the moment, because that's the way I feel, but that's for another time. My train is almost home.
