✨ MAGIC OF THE DAY ✨

I took this photo 5 months ago. I found it going through my old photos and want to share a story about it.

.

A month after my dad passed away, I went to the embassy to sort out some paper work. From my experience, I believed these things usually take ages. I remember in the morning of this day, I put that aside and I set the intention for the paperwork to flow effortlessly.
.
There were few hiccups, an hour queue etc. I held that vision of it completing and me receiving the paperwork I need in the same day.
.
I went in the room and this box of Ferrero Rocher was there. They’re my favourite chocolate in the whole world 😍 I got a bit excited and said, “Oh I love these!” She offered me some 💩
.
We went onto organising the paperwork. I told her about my dad, how he passed away and when. Then we both realised her dad passed away 2 years ago, very close to the area where my dad was, from the same reason and she was in UK like I was receiving the news on the phone.
.
We looked at each other and smiled. In that split second, we felt each other, we felt our pain and strength.
.
Paperwork was done in total of 3 hours. This is a record time especially when Turks are involved in any paperwork 😂
.
I thanked her and gave her a hug. She showed me there can be magic even in the most mundane tasks you’re not keen on doing. She also showed me there can be closeness and connection in grief.
.
We are not so different from one another. When one person opens up, everyone else opens up and says, “I feel the same.” It takes one person. You can be that person ❤️
.
Have you ever felt a moment of connection in sadness or grief?
.
Love you 💛
