It was one of those mornings. Maybe you don’t get them. I was feeling just a tad sorry for myself whilst simultaneously knowing how fortunate I am. Sitting there, clutching my coffee cup with both hands, looking out at the grey sky, rain drizzling down and yep, I was feeling apprehensive as I had a fairly serious meeting lined up. You know the type, one chance to make a good impression and yet all the odds stacked against you.
A sudden uplift. On my tablet, I see a most welcome comment on a recent blog post about the difficulties encountered when living overseas, fluent in another language, yet lacking the courage and confidence to 'pipe' up, to speak out and add my voice to the conversation.
Great content. Would love to quote you on my site, is that ok?
Only when I scroll down later and I see the website wishing to quote my post…. it is for, yes, you’ve guessed ‘Life Enhancement Products ‘ – You’ve got to laugh and I just roared. In future, I’ll think at least twice about headlines. When you headline a post with ‘When Words don’t come fast enough’…. why was I so surprised ! Naive would be an understatement.
More on meaning, alternative uses and interpretation another time.
Love your day 🙂
and the meeting as it happens went brilliantly !
