Hello there! Wouldn’t you agree with that quote? I don’t believe any of our friendships are accidents. Every one I have had over the years has positively impacted my life, even if I didn’t think it at the time.
Two Things I Am Grateful For
- My very good friend Megan. Since God has blessed me with her friendship, I have done nothing but outgrow my fears and enjoy new experiences. Thank you, Megan. This afternoon, she invited me to dinner. We had a great meal at a Greek restaurant we had not visited before. We also shared dishes that we had never had before, like mousaka. It was also a fantastic way to celebrate the official start of our leave!
- My colleague was offering complimentary tickets to a rugby match. My son has often spoken about wanting to go to a game so I took my colleague up on his offer. I am really grateful for my colleague’s generosity. My son gets to tick off another new experience this holiday.
One Moment of Joy
Part of our meal this evening was roast chicken. It tasted like my mother’s roast chicken. I was so surprised. That first bite transported me back to my mum’s house for a split second. I could even feel her presence. It was an amazing experience. It also reminded me how much I miss her. I am not sad, though. I am grateful to have felt her presence, even though it was so brief.
That’s it from me for today. Thanks for popping in.
Bye for now
