Plain June


There is this really old lady that lives on our street. I think she is well into her 80s but is as active and vibrant as a 50 year old! She can walk as swift as me on any given day. She has so much life in her. As lovely as pie, today we bumped into each other and had a little natter. She told me she was born and raised in Edmonton. One of nine children. So I asked, "how was it like growing up in such a large household?". She said "Well, we weren't posh or anything, I couldn't even be posh if I tried, I'm just ordinary." I said, you are not ordinary, you are special. She said "No, call me Plain June. I'm just Plain June".  Well Plain June, I'm sorry I can't honour your request. You are such a lovely young lady and you brighten our day every time we see you. You are more than plain. You are extraordinary. So from henceforth when I see you, I will call you "Extraordinary June!". When I see you, I feel at peace with the world. You are simply amazing June!

Be Inspired
xoxo
