Whaat?!
I open my album in search of pictures from yesterday’s walk and there is one and one only! I guess I’ll need to reach deeper into my album and pick some pictures I skipped from other walks.
I was shocked at first, before I realised that indeed, I took almost no pictures, because I was on the phone with Tina throughout my walk, my drive home and half an hour at home.
I’m really not a phone person. I have sounds turned off on both of my phones. I don’t like it when people call me. Facetime I can tolerate to some extend and with certain people. I guess hours of wasted hours on the phone to any company to deal with anything left a trauma response to being on the phone.
I really like to see the person I’m talking too. See their gestures and facial impressions. Just voice calls seem cold and detached.
But some days there is a real need to pick up the phone, because I know it’s something another person needs. A little gift, like the one from a blooming tree that I found on my path today.
My friend Tina is training to become a driving instructor and yesterday she had her first theory and hazard test and she failed. I knew she felt down and a little chat with a silly me will cheer her up.
Truth be told, she did really well. She passed the hazard test with over 90% and she got 77% in theory test. Passing mark was 85%, so she really wasn’t far off. I remember when we first started doing these tests together, she was scoring 40-50%, so there is a huge improvement in those couple months.
As usual, we jumped from one subject to another and I was making fun of my recent miseries and we laughed and she said I sound much better. Well, it’s what I do. I find pleasure in lifting people I care about up, firstly because I know the taste of hopelessness too well and secondly because it lifts my spirits up as much as theirs.
That said, I have something that really lifted my spirits up during today’s walk, but that’s for tomorrow’s report.
Until next walk 💙
