Back up the crazy train! Actually, I backed up my shopping cart as the writing on the towel I had just passed registered in my brain. And then I laughed. Out loud. In the middle of the grocery store.
“Some days I think my life is being directed by Quentin Tarantino.”
Because, boy, did that sentence resonate a few days ago. Anyone else? (In case you are not my generation, Quentin has directed some…unique movies.)
Yesterday, a friend texted me about her child’s new plan at school to support a health diagnosis. She wrote that the “counselor seems really nice. I just have to laugh at the 504 plan though. Want to meet for tea one day next week and we can laugh together over life?”
Then she sent me a picture of the tag from her current cup of tea:
“Life may not be the party we hoped for but while we’re here we should dance.”
And that resonated too.
Five years ago, I would share the newest development in our lives with a friend who would then share it with her husband. His response multiple times was, “You can’t make this stuff up.”
And I feel like we’re living in that dimension again. “Life may not be the party we hoped for…” Indeed. I don’t think even Quentin Tarantino could make some of this stuff up.
“…but while we’re here we should dance.” When I saw a saying on a towel that made me laugh, I stopped to photograph it. When a friend wanted to laugh over tea, I gladly accepted. On the really hard days, I can’t do those things. On the really hard days, I definitely can’t dance. But most days? Most days I can dance. Like today.
