Dear Friends,
Last weekend, the concept of "like attracts like" caught up with me at the Pearson International Airport! My negative thoughts and feelings brought about some negative outcome - my flight to NY was delayed for three hours - as long as a round trip to La Guardia!
I had every intention of joining the moaners and the groaners, but then I remembered my mantra "It can be worse!" So, instead of "sardining" myself between people whose feet and luggage also deserve seats, I checked myself into the Admiral Club!
Complimentary wine and Internet - What a blessing!
As soon as I discovered travellers are not as friendly and talkative as bar hoppers, I logged into my blog and worked on my memoir!
Gradually my positive energy surfaced, and so did the sun over Manhattan!
My plans with my granddaughters and nieces were realised few hours later than anticipated.
Yesterday morning, my grateful son showed his appreciation by upgrading my return ticket - more free wine! With the front row empty, I got to stretch my legs - suddenly realising how much my own feet needed a seat of their own!
However, "Welcome to Canada, stand behind red line please," does not discriminate in favour of executive class! It seemed that all the planes had arrived at the same time!
To preserve the integrity of my socialist beliefs, I took the public transportation home!
This morning, still in New York kind of mood, I can't help, but feel very lucky. I'm so grateful for being able to take these short trips to see my family.
Have a complimentary day everyone!
