Coincidence or providence?

Posted by: fracas on January 7 @ 9:13 pm

I don’t know if it was my self-imposed morning therapy that did it, but today has been a super day. You know one of those days, when you feel a heavy stone lifting from your chest which leaves you both light and exhilarated Well that sums up my day. After the sadness had lifted I felt incredibly happy. Seeing this in print as a write, it looks more like a clear case of borderline personality disorder. But given the raised levels of hormones running riots in my body I shall put it down to my pregnant state.

As usual I went for my lunch at Victor’s and along with my latest reading material – Lullabies for little Criminals by Heather O’Neill. The novel has completely gripped me from the start, and as I was reading waiting for my lunch to arrive, I felt myself transported to the streets of Montreal where Baby, the novels protagonist spends her days and nights. Lullabies for little Criminals has a very matter-of-fact, no nonsense prose, and yet it’s this that grips you and makes you share the joys and sorrows of a 12 year old kid abandoned by family and society. Zero 7 was playing in the background which suited the narrative to perfection.

I eventually managed to tear myself away from the book and went home, happy and content. At home I finished off a draft plan, and run myself a bath. With camera in hand I posed in front of the mirror whilst listening to my favourite play list. Once again Zero 7 was on with In the waiting line. Coincidence or providence?
