3 Good Things (Redux)

Desmond79

Since the thread, which began May 2021, seems to have vanished, I wish to create a new one. 

From Darkness to Light. Smiley

1. I paid for a condensed tumble dryer, which I reserved on Tuesday; for delivery, tomorrow. Also paid for a three-year warranty. (In cash) 

2. I made a poem, entitled 'Storm in a teacup', about the arrival of Agnes. (SEYMOUR!) 

3. Bought more Farm-Fresh milk today.

  • 1. Had my yearly check-up for my overarching condition, consultant was lovely and symptoms all okay. 

    2. This morning the air was suddenly cold, but still sunny.

    3. A really lovely person noticed on the train that I was blind, and actually asked if I wanted them to help me get off at the other end or if I was okay, rather than just assuming.

    Hello Sphinx!

    It is lovely to "detect" your reappearance here, again.

    It is good to hear that that your experience of "Joe Public" is still, on occasion, a positive one.

    For me, it remains the case that it is predominantly our animal cousins who sustain my faith in the world.

    Warm wishes to you.

    Aw I've only just seen this. That feels resonant, Number. There is so much care and beauty in the non-human animal world. I wonder what our lives would look like if we assessed ourselves against the standards of, for example, cetaceans for a change... But there are some good humans too and it does feel important to remember that when I can. Not always easy. 

    Warm wishes to you too :)
