This morning however, i went with my neighbour and a friend of hers ................ BIG MISTAKE ! Instead of listening to the wonderful sound of the ocean and the seagulls i heard his voice, blah blah blah, me me me and I. Kind of "i am tired of talking about myself now won't you talk about me for a while" thing.
At the end of the walk we had coffee at a little place right on the ocean, next to the municipal swimming pool, where the seagulls bathe early in the morning to prepare themselves for their day ahead.
As i was adding sweetener to my coffee he said : "Aaaah the fat persons cancer treat "
If i tell you a million thoughts ran through my head in a split second i am not exaggerating at ALL !
there i was sitting, having had cancer twice, chemo, radiation, mastectomy, emotional trauma the whole nine yards and this little twit has the audacity to make comments like that .....
In the end there was nothing worth saying.... no words to express any of my feelings of anger, hurt, disgust .
So i just kept quiet and looked at the seagulls and decided i shall be walking on my own tomorrow.
how beautiful in the early morning
all along the promenade there are these statues of this woman in different poses interspersed with dragonflies. very very beautiful.
this one had an empty bottle of wine and a cigarette in her hands that someone had placed there. at first i was upset about it feeling it is dishonoring the beauty of this statue, but then i looked at her pose and it almost seemed as if she was saying: "i want to give this up"
maybe the person who did this, did so in a promise to stop smoking and drinking too much and this was their way of expressing it....
whatever..... it is beautiful
and how much did i not have to say today ! :O
