More similar than we think
The other day, Poppy and I went to have 'special time', which means taking off and finding a nice cup of coffee somewhere and having a chit-chat for an hour or so. There was nothing specific to talk about – no bad news or good news. Just chatting. A few other people were having special time, or whatever they call it, some dads and daughters (like us), some parents who wanted a break with their small, young children, and some moms with their children. But we were all doing the same thing. On our way back to the car in the car park, there was something odd: right next to each other, there were two cars of the same make, model, and color. How crazy was that? There are not too many Fiat Pandas around this part of Great Britain. But to get two parking right next to others is rare.
And it made me think:
- We often do similar things – sitting or parking next to each other.
- We often look similar – sure, we are all unique in our own way, just like my car has its salty white deposit on its black windshield wipers from living on a beach, but, ultimately, both cars look remarkably similar.
- We often like finding others – just like when found our lovely little car blue Fiat parked next to her sweet sister, we needed to celebrate by taking a picture!
I'm sure there are many other ways we're similar right now. So, let's celebrate!
