I was up and out early this morning for blood tests (next PET scan coming up soon!), which meant I had to forgo coffee until that was done. So on the way home I stopped in at a cute little spot that specialises in toast and coffee and serves breakfast all day long. Sitting in the window seat I noticed this colourful fish in a glass vase and was struck by its beauty and elegance. And then I noticed its odd behaviour. It kept floating to the top and then would flip upside down so its mouth was just touching the surface of the water and Peter pointed out that it was probably lacking oxygen in that small amount of water, maybe 3 litres. Suddenly struck by a huge wave of sadness watching that gorgeous fish stuck in a small vase of stale water, the line from Down by Law “it’s a sad and beautiful world” came to me. And you know what? It really is.
