Imagination

Another bout of flu looming. This table-tennis effect is so, not, nice.

Somehow, feeling utterly oppressed today, I decided to find a nice, quiet corner to do up my stuff, and let my thoughts flow. Hide, hide, hide, and it was productive!

Few things got sorted over meetings today, and endless possibilities are ahead, just waiting to be green-lighted, and to be realized. Keeping fingers crossed.

By the time I got back to office, it was almost 7pm.

Squeezed in a quick dinner with YF, before making my way to my quiet corner, with nice evening breeze for somemore planning.

And you know how the tiniest, sweet gesture from random stranger can just brighten your day just like this?

I asked for a table where I could use the power point socket, and the waiter led me to a nice, breezy corner with a table for 6, where an empty socket was nearby. Lotsa place for me to strewn my notes around, nice.

After he laid down the menu, I gave a quick order of iced tea, realised it wasn’t in the menu, thus changed it to Earl Grey. He then asked for my membership card. I didn’t realise I need to be a member before I could place an order.

I regretful told him I ain’t a member, and was ready to pack my stuff, before he smiled and told me I could still use the table if I want to, and he asked if he could bring me a glass of iced water.

I grinned brightly, thanked him profusely at the sweet offer, and proceeded on to set up my notebook.

It wasn’t long before he was back with a sweaty glass of iced water, and then he placed another coaster down, and set a tall glass of iced tea (what I had wanted to order originally! I was already pleasantly surprised and happily thankful that he made an exception for me to place an order without membership!) with a bowl of tidbits beside it.

What could get better than this?

Don’t worry, on the house,” he said.

BEST. SERVICE. EVER!

A quote that struck me today.

“Imagination is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited to all we now know and understand, while imagination embraces the entire world, and all there ever will be to know and understand.” ~ Albert Einstein
