Unexpected Delights: Little Joys of Being Loved
In everyday happenings, I went through a series of pleasant surprises regarding clothes steamers.
Initially, when our home clothes steamer broke, we were considering buying a new one. Unexpectedly, a friend offered to gift us a handheld steamer that she was selling in her store. This coincidence left me astonished and grateful, saving us the expense of buying a new one.
The even more astonishing part was when another friend, preparing to move abroad, couldn’t take the steamer along and left it to us. Having one already, I thought of keeping the extra one for whoever might need it.
However, recently, the first gifted handheld steamer met an unfortunate fate, broken when it accidentally fell. Just as I pondered over how to fix or replace it, I suddenly remembered another friend’s gift — another steamer.
What a delightful surprise! It was waiting here for me!
The striking similarity made me contemplate: are these coincidences carefully arranged? It seemed like a perfectly orchestrated performance, allowing me to experience the gifts of love in unexpected moments.
