Expect the Unexpected
esterday was my last full day down here in Florida for this particular trip. My adult son had asked me (he's down here full time) what I'd like him to do for me for my last day, and I was happily surprised. I didn't expect him to offer anything. We were just having a nice time whenever I saw him and that was good enough, in fact great. So with this added bonus, I said I'd like to test drive the Corolla. I'm considering getting a new car. We did. It was certainly more fun than test driving alone. Another unexpected experience. And, to top the day he asked if I'd like to go to a movie. Wow! I can't remember the last time that happened. And, to top that off, we went to see an animated movie. None of my friends like animation and I love it, as does he. Just to let you know Wall-E is a wonderful love story with a strong ecological theme. To top that off the movie was terrific and he even asked if I'd like to eat out.
It was a totally wonderful day. I don't know how to tell you to expect the unexpected. And to expect the unexpected to be good…. happy …joyful. Shall I say that the key is to be optimistic? Perhaps that is what expecting the unexpected means. Have a wonderful day.
