Was today typical?

View all responses

Hello, my friends,

While scrolling through WordPress, I found today’s prompt writing question most exciting: “Was Today Typical?”

Yes, today was anything but typical. It began with the usual morning routine but soon veered off into a series of unexpected and delightful experiences that left me feeling exhilarated and inspired.

A Journey Beyond the Ordinary

My familiar scent of fresh mint tea

I woke up to the gentle hum of my alarm, the familiar scent of fresh mint tea wafting through the air. As I sipped my tea and prepared to start my day, I felt a sense of calm, anticipating the predictable flow of events.

Little did I know, today had different plans for me.

The first hint that today would be extraordinary came from a surprise telephone call from my big brother just as I was about to leave the house for a morning walk. After a short discussion, he gave me a writing prompt: “If you are alone.”

This came as a surprise because he himself is a great writer and perhaps wanted to test my writing skills. No problem, I found a pen and paper and quickly wrote a blog titled, “If You Are Alone.” You can see it at the link below.

Yes, I completed that blog in just an hour, cutting short my morning routine.

a notification popped up on my screen

Just as I finished writing, a notification popped up on my screen. It was an invitation from my morning walk friends to join them at the swimming pool. I was late, but I quickly joined them for a refreshing blue water exercise session.

Later, I enjoyed swimming with them.

After breakfast and returning from the pool, my phone rang again. My old drawing teacher surprised me by asking me to join an online drawing class. That call came after a gap of one year since I left Kalyani.

Since drawing and painting are my passions, I was excited to join. Without wasting any time, I quickly signed up and spent the next few hours immersed in a world of colors.

Some old friends surprised Me

The evening also surprised me. While at the gym, I ran into some old friends I hadn’t seen in six months. It was heartwarming to see my senior citizen friends, who are still young at heart and active enough to enjoy a game of table tennis at the clubhouse.

I owned one but lost twice—ha ha ha.😂😂 They are great sports enthusiasts, and their energy and zest for life inspired me to stay active and fit.

To end the day on a high note, our friends decided to play a few rounds of our favorite card game, Gin Rummy. The competition was fierce, but the laughter and joy we shared made it all worthwhile.

Friends, it is 10 o’clock,

As I returned home and settled in for the night, I couldn’t help but reflect on how wonderfully unpredictable today had been. Friends, it is 10 o’clock, and I have just finished this blog to share with you before going to bed.

Was today typical? Far from it. Today was a reminder that life is full of surprises, and sometimes the best days are the ones that take you on an unexpected journey.

Thanks for reading, and I wish you a happy and contented life.
