Some Stories Taste Better Than They Sound!
Missed a Meeting, Gained a Memory
Today, I did something so unlike me that I am still a little surprised. I am usually the type who double checks dates, sets reminders and even gets anxious about being on time.
But this morning something different happened.
I casually left home, caught my regular bus and plugged in my earphones without a care in the world. Little did I know, I was supposed to be at the office half an hour earlier for a meeting that had been rescheduled from Friday to today.
I had completely forgotten about it.
After about five minutes of waiting for me to join, my boss texted me…asking how far I had reached. I replied, “Around 10 minutes more,” as I was still clueless about what was going on. Then she reminded me we had a meeting, and they were all waiting for me.
My heart skipped a beat. The usual me would have straight had a panic attack, sweating, overthinking and probably messaging ten apologies already.
However, something shifted in me today.
