Pull or push..

Hehehehee.....people make me giggle.

The door into the coffee shop causes much consternation, it is clearly signed and one side does not have a handle. There is a stop plate on one side so a simple, quick inspection of its structure would let you know (even if it wasn't so clearly signed!) how to open it......however, it gives people problems. This morning one dear simple soul stood on the outside, she cupped her hands onto the window and peered in, perplexed as to how we had all gained entrance. I motioned for her to push the door....she pushed the locked side....and looked at me and shrugged...I got up and opened it for her. The look on her face was wonderful, it was as if I had performed some form of incomprehensible magic trick! When she realised how simple a mistake she had made dawned on her....well, embarrassed wasn't the word. I giggled with her and we laughed at it.

How often it is in life that we know not when to push or pull, when we stand at the crossroads and look for some hint at which direction we should go. In a world with so many choices, so many directions, it doesn't surprise me that we get all discombobulated at some of the more mundane stuff.

Like the grass in the fable....(or the daffodils by the river) I prefer to just bend with the wind, or the flow of life's river.....

Happy Thursday folks!
