Daisies

Hello Everyone:

I went to the wedding yesterday. It was okay, not great but okay. I got there early, only to realize I forgot something at home. I asked someone to give me a lift home, which seemed to confound everyone. I just decided to go back alone. I didn't mind missing pictures because I didn't want to be in any of hem. Really, I didn't want to be in any of the pictures. I just didn't want any reminders of how unhappy I am being out of a relationship that I thought was going to last forever. I ended up leaving early. I didn't even partake of the cocktail buffet, I wasn't hungry, I made myself a filling lunch that I ate a wee bit too fast. I think skipping a meal gave me a bad headache. Back to the unhappiness, that carried over to this morning. In addition to the headache I had this morning, I was still upset about the whole thing. Somehow, the universe must have sensed it because someone handed me a small bouquet of daisies. I tried to politely refuse it but the person insisted I take it. That simple gesture brought on the tears. I couldn't stop crying, making it hard to breathe. The flowers are sitting on my desk. The rest of the day went pretty smooth. My headache seems to be going away. I have no clue why someone would give me flowers, out of the blue. It made me feel better. Maybe that was the universe sending me some sort of message to cheer up, it's not all bad, you're not alone. Who knows. It was a kind gesture and very welcome. Now whenever I see a daisy I'll think of that moment.
