Discussion»Questions»Outside the Mug» What is something that you thought was very fancy ( posh) when you were younger but now you realize... yeah not so much.
High end restaurants, hotels, etc. I may not have had much in my life but I've seen a lot and been exposed to some of the finer things in life. I don't "dazzle" easily.
Smart woman :) I can still be dazzled by nice hotels. Especially the ones when you order a bottle of wine through room service.. and they bring you fancy snack mix to go with it in a pretty bowl. I love that.
The kind of things that move me is when someone does something nice for me or gives me a small gift, things I cherish forever. A woman with Alzheimers gave me a handful of plastic spoons. They are in a vase on my dresser. She gave them to me as if they were bars of gold, they meant that much to her. When I told her the gift was too much, she insisted, shaking her head slightly as if to say she knew what a big gift it was but she wanted me to have them anyway. She stretched out her hand, holding them and I humbly accepted them with great thanks to her. It is probably the most meaningful gift I've ever received. I am brought to tears right now just thinking about it. When it is given to me from the heart regardless of what it is, that means the most.
