July 11 Cleveland 2nd night
July 11 Cleveland 2nd night
Charles dropped me in downtown , he went to work.
In starbucks I sent message to Michael. He is willing to host me, But I had already found two hosts in cleveland when I got his answer, I even thought I may extend my play one more time , to stay at his home. If I stay in Cleveland 6 days, that is not too long. Life is too short , many places we cannot go second times. But I have host in Erie in the next two days. So I have to keep Micheal for next time. But Michael is such friendly , he said ht would like to meet me, do I couldn't refuse his kindness. My host Charles off work at 8pm, he has no time with me in daytime .
Michael off work at 5:30pm, he said he come to pick me at 5:30-6pm. When it was about 6:10, I thought Michael might couldn't find the place, so I looked for a telephone to give him a call.
Two Asian girls was coining, I asked them to help make a phone call. They stopped and doubt 2 seconds and then answered together with one word "No!"
They are so young, but they are so nervous to see me, who is a same kind of race as them, same gender as them, maybe even from same country as them. What made them feel so scary to the world?
I thought they are young, they should be more open, they are Asian, they should have more samthpthy to the people from motherland, they are woman, their hearts should be more tender to the needy.
But No, they doubt, nervous,fear. cold. As I said before, all these things are much closer to hate, far away to love.
Without trust, there is place for love.
There were a young man and a young lady coming, I asked the man for telephone. This was not a question at all for him. The thing is so easy for a man, so men received much bigger blessings from God, because they trust. They don't doubt ,fear , nervous.
Doesn't matter what kinds of races or genders , if you are in God, God will bless you aways. So people are eaquel are not only in law , it is in God.
While I dialed out the number, put cellphone on ear, Micheal was coming.
We were excited to meet each other. I returned the phone to the man immediately, rush to hug Michael.
I checked his photos carefully before. So we recognized each other easily. I guess my hosts recongnized me pretty easy.
Michael said " you are normal " I think this is the best commendmrnt about me. He had abnormal couchsurfing experienment.
We went to see lake, windy. Some peopl Catch fish in pier. We walked on beach , I felt so good.I just love water.
Michael told me about his "weired" couchsuffer. A very short Asian girl from Toronto Canada for a conference, she had a hotel to stay , but she want to meet Michael hang around. When the time came , Michael called her to pick her, she answered:" I am not dress up..." so wait moment.
Finally they met, the girl said, she drank too much, so she grap his arm,fail her face on his chest.
I laughed " how old is she?" " 23 " I am 45, I am too old to do that. So don't worry ."
If I am not normal, how I can sleep many people's home , most of them are single men. I have good feeling for them all, some even more than good feeling. But God control this world, so I am still normal.
That reminded me of another story. My neighbor Morgan is very handsome man, his has a beautiful wife and 3 beautiful kids. His whole family love God. We go to same church.he is my idio in my heart. When I go to church , my eyes just look for where is Morgan. Once my eyes catch him, I always encourage myself : take one more look, this is lligel place.
When I go home , I report to my husband about Morgan . Sometime I talk too much about Morgan. That made my sweet husband turn to sour. One time he said : in your mind, only two persons , one is Morgan , another is Jesus" I responded " No. You are Wrong. When I see Ben (Morgan's younger brother) I forgot Morgan. But I ve never forgot Jesus."
I may weak as that girl from toronto, even I am older than her. But Jesus is strong. Jesus is my friend , my boss. He is with me always. So I am still normal.
After such beautiful evening on lake beach. We went to learn swing dance. That was a big fun. I am not good at any kinds of sports including dance. But I like to have a reason to hold
Michael's hands. His eyes are very beautiful. I even felt nervous to see them. Certainly I didn't drink too much and then fail my face on his chest.when the teacher let everyone g
move left a position. I lost Michael. Another lady became my partner ...
After swing dance lesson, We ate enjoyed dinner.
I called Charles told him a friend will drive me to his house , so don't need come to pick me . Don't worry about me. I came home later.
It was getting dark. Michael drove to Charles home ,until delivered me Charles 's hands.
Charles has such wonderful character, he has low and calm voice , friendly and peaceful personality.
When he opened the door, I felt I am so happy to stay at his home.
