If you think of it, everyday is special in a certain way. For example, today we woke up to find that the town had frozen during the night. Wivenhoe Park was white as if it had snowed; the trees and the grass were covered with a layer of frost.
Then we went to the lake but we stood far near the library. A male and a female duck came towards us, expecting us to have some food to give them. My husband tossed them some small pieces of the carrot cake we had just bought and the two birds snatched them in such unbelievable speed. We left the two ducks some little pieces and walked away, but when we turned back, we found out that the seagulls, the crows and the other ducks found out that there was food offered there and a funny fight started among them on some food that was gone long ago. On the way back to our flat, a group of young kids accompanied by some adults were coming back from Wivenhoe House. They seemed to have attended a Christmas event held there. They had small paper bags with Wivenhoe House logos on them. A small boy approached us with great enthusiasm in his eyes and cried with joy: I got two cakes!
Doesn't all this make the day special? I believe it does. So you too, think back of what happened today and discover the beauty hidden in the small details of your day.
