Do you ever feel insignificant ?
I must admit I don’t very often.
But I did today, strangely enough when buttering a piece of toast.
The toast wasn’t the issue,
Even though it was a German hard bread,
The sort you have to run at to bite.
I was watching the Papal visit to France
His inaugural concert with thousands of smiling young faces, of fireworks and music
And suddenly felt very small
It was the same at the eye hospital when I read the happy boast
We have seen 1328 patients this month!
I was one of the 1328!
I understand the insignificance
I’m not a part of any religion and I don’t want to be a part of an nhs statistic
Late middle age is an invisible time too
It’s this why I wear t shirts with dinosaurs,on them?
The German sent me a T shirt with a roaring T rex on the front
“ Daddy-o-saurus” was the caption
I wore it today and only one person looked at it in the supermarket.
