Tuesday was my annual trek to have my bloodwork done. Full of righteousness, I walk the mile to the hospital, get blood drawn and then walk back, all before breakfast.
I'm not worried about have blood taken, but I don't watch it. I look away, try to think other thoughts and wait for it to be over. That morning looking to the opposite wall, I noticed a very sloppy clean-up job. The cart with the vials was near that wall and so I was wondering whether one had spilled and sent fluids flying.
Asking the technician about it, she flicked a switch instead of answering. Away went the botched job of cleaning, and in its place there now was an octopus, a beautiful creature. In fact, there was a whole sea world around me.
What a gift during an otherwise mundane (for me) or even stressful (for others, perhaps) moment. If ever there was, this was a chance to share. With finger raised, I say,
Delight!
