Hidden Jabs

Isn't it funny how your life remains stable for some while and all of a sudden things change, or at least seem that they will but don't give you the opportunity to experience the change! If I could share a little bit of something that I have noticed everytime I'm about to go back home for 2 weeks. Every time i'm about to fly back to Hawaii for my 2 week or so break, I notice a large influx of activity and invitations to do things during times that I won't be here. It's like activity in my life may be dormant for a 1-2 month interval and then bam* everyone wants to hang out with you... but the problem is.... I'll be in Hawaii! Sorry!! Takes me back to that song... "isn't it ironic"- Alanis Morrissette . Anyways just wanted to share what I call as lifes "Hidden Jabs." Small punches to the gut that you don't know where it came from but you wish you saw it coming so you could at least prepare for it in a better matter.
