I tend to take life literally, so this question is a bit too metaphysical for me. But on that plane:
Would he be the homeless man outside, begging?
Would he be standing in line, wondering if he should order a venti gingerbread latte?
Would he be a she?
Would I be too tired to notice?
There is the belief that God resides in every one of us, which would mean that I always bump into God at Starbucks.
That's a comforting thought.
I have to get to Starbucks more often.
[Literally: If I bumped into God at Starbucks, I wouldn't know unless he wearing the purple and white robes and had the long-flowing white beard that I remember from images in bible stories. And if that person bumped into me at Starbucks, I would most likely think that he's some kind of nut or homeless person, and I'd move away as quickly as possible. Not too impressive of me. I definitely need to learn to dig deeper and not take people at face value.]
