Today I had to finish up my last minute Christmas present shopping. I was going to go alone. In the end, I asked EQ to join me even though part of the surprise for his gift would be revealed.
Boy! Am I glad that I decided to bring him along.
The freeway we were on was full of rush hour cars. Top that off with a serious accident and we suddenly found ourselves on the freeway for over an hour for a drive that should have taken 15-20 minutes.
But, all was not lost. I had my love with me! But that was not the best part. The best part was how we just dove into deep conversation about the many big changes pressing upon us. It was deep, but it was light. It was meaningful, but filled with pauses of laughter and silliness.
Beautiful.
A moment I would not have had, if I didn't ask him to join me. I would have been anxious to get back, mulling over all the to do's in my own mind and likely getting even more anxious.
Instead, we didn't care how long it took us to get to the mall. We were deep in conversation.
Moments where the universe aligns pieces of the puzzle for you.
Moments reclaimed from an otherwise annoying situation.
