The mysterious act of kindness the other day prompts me to mention once again one of my favorite moments that remains unexplained. Shortly after suffering a heart attack, I was on my way to the doctor when I stopped at Whole Foods. When I returned to my locked car, there was a small enamel cross on the front seat. My friends wondered as I did: How did it there?
I ended up not being invested in solving the mystery as much as enjoying how it made me feel: Alive and fortified for the future. During the same time, my friend Phyllis gave me a little Buddha. I said to myself: "Now I'm really covered."
I am glad you survived the heart attack with whatever helped. Coincidence, an act of god or gods, or expert MDs, you choose.
ReplyDeleteI say: “Embrace it all.”
