THE BUS

If you would
visualize this entry,
word
by 
word
into a movie
to play
in your head.
 
Ready?
 
Imagine yourself preparing to go on a trip. You are EXCITED! You have heard that this place is “the bomb” as you would put it. You start preparing for this trip. You get your hair done, you buy cute fits, you even went out bought a suitcase and you plan on filling it to the brim!
 
You are so excited that you want family and friends to come, then you find out that they can go too!!! Ah man what more can a person ask for. Your family and friends can go. Everyone is planning for this trip. Everyone is in contact with each other, all on the same page. Your favorite cousins, and best friends are going. You say to yourself “its about time, my family is getting together”.
 
The night before, everyone is to meet in front of their own homes with their OWN suitcase in hand. You set your alarm clock to be up at 5, but the bus comes at 7.
 
Everyone calls each other to say goodnight.
 
The next morning, your alarm clock goes off, you are still sleep you don’t hear it. Your family calls your home, but you do not hear the phone, its not enough time for them to come over your house, because the bus will be leaving soon.
 
You wake up at 7:15 and the bus came and GONE.
 
 
What are you feeling?   Share your thoughts on the FACT THAT YOU GOT LEFT!

  1. I think I’m like “damn why didn’t those mofo’s call and wake me up” Hmmmm then I’d debate rollin up to where they are just to curse a few people out.. I mean shh I actually have to go somewhere lookin too good and I’m all packed anyway… So I would gas up the car, grab my favorite CD’s and hit the road…Turn my cell phone off so those mofo’s wouldn’t know what was up.. Get to the function show my ass, curse out a few people …and leave when I get good and damn ready ..since I drove myself there .. LOL It would be a trip to remember….. now if is a good or bad memory… I can’t say, but mos def unforgettable .. !!!!

  2. Ok options #2 They did try to call me to wake me up .. but I didn’t hear the damn phone….. Hmmm I’d feel bad , like I let folks down.. I’d jump in my car and meet ’em there anyway. I know some people would be like “damn what happen to you “.. I’d be very sorry, but would insist on having a good time from that point on.. But the inital feelin would be ” damn i tripped ” ..lol ( thinkin for a minute)…I still think someone should have stayed back.. to roll with me tho shh … I mean damn they knew I was there …. I think I’m still pissed off Cre.. Mofo’s should have stalled the bus, or something … But if it was all my fault .. I feel bad….a lil bit ….LOL

  3. I don’t really care about being left .. that’s always been my attitude.. I’m a very “self-fulfilled” person. If someone doesn’t call me .. or forgets my birthday, or is suppose to do something but doesn’t … Oh well… I can’t get my panties in a bunch for that … I don’t expect much from people in general. so it doesn’t suprise me when things ” happen” …. But I’d have words for ’em….but it wouldn’t affect me to the point where I was feelin bad about being left.. shh I bring the life to the party so .. it would be them missin me more … I don’t wish I was anywhere but where I am.. So I don’t feel like I miss things …I just feel like I’ll experience something different . Whee Cre .. girl I’m on a roll with this one ….. Very interesting I like this ….

  6. I THINK WE SHOULD BE CONSIDERATE OF WHAT WE TYPE IN COMMENTING SOMEONE ELSE S
    BLOG. ESPECIALLY OUR LANGUAGE. IF WE USE WORDS THAT IS NOT OF GOD. IT IS UNCLEAN WORDS. WE HAVE TO BE CAREFUL OF WHAT WE READ,WHAT WE SEE,& WHAT WE HEAR. THAT SHOULD BE FOR ME AND EVERYONE ELSE. GOD BLESS!

  7. If I had of gotten left, I ain’t gone lie, I would be mad as hell!!! But I’ll get over it and in some since this is just like the return of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. So many people put off getting their lives in order afraid of what they might be missing and I say Tomorrow may never come while people sitting up here waiting and saying just one more day. This story is indicating that ya might get left even if you are prepared cuz there are things that hold ya back and if you’re not too careful you just might be left at home kicking rocks wondering what happened!!!

  8. I’d be pretty upset at first. Then, I’d prepare to be more vigilant the next time. You know this reminds me of when my family and I left New Orleans that Sunday morning before Katrina came through. We all talked that Saturday afternoon and planned to meet at one of my aunt’s houses Sunday morning for 5 with our bare necessities. All night I prayed. I slept a little, then I prayed a little. I asked the Lord to wake me up when it was time because I DO NOT and HAVE NEVER used an alarm clock to wake me up. I have always been able to wake up on time because retire for the evening at a reasonable time and I pray before going to sleep that the Lord would wake me up and He has never let me down. Three of my cousins did not show up at my aunt’s house. I do know that they planned on going to a party that night and hanging out with their friends. We all called them Sunday morning, but there was no answer on the home or cell phones. By the time we were about to leave the city the traffic was building up so bad that we could not travel backwards to go to their houses. They are dead today. Why didn’t they wake up in time? Why didn’t they answer the phone? We don’t know. Better question is why plan to stay out and party when you’ve made plans the next day to leave the city very early? That bus, to me, represents the Holy Spirit delivering us from cerain places or escorting us into certain areas that we could not have entered before. We must be vigilant, sober and prayerful or we will miss the bus everytime.

  9. Knowing me I would be upset and probably crying but I couldn’t be mad at no one because things happen. I would look at it like GOD had somethign else for me to do or it was not meant for me to go and then I would get over it and try and find something real fun to do so when everyone get back I can say I did something too!!

  12. Crease…

    After reading the blog.. All I could think about is wow I wonder how I would feel if this trip was the trip I take to the kingdom of God. I got left behind because of whatever the reason. I would be upset with myself and not with my family. On a spiritual level this was so on point at where I am in my spiritual walk. Thanks for giving me some food for thought..
