A Moment of Magic

8:15pm
This evening there was an event for people who live in my complex, but it was also fiddle lesson registration night...(which I realize only takes one or two minutes), but I felt it was better to go to the latter rather than have to answer confusing questions which might be directed at me or to have to make small talk, (which we all know, people with Asperger's find very difficult to do and find it very uncomfortable to do).

So I actually had a moment of magic after the registration since it has been a totally awesome day in terms of weather, just like yesterday and the day before, in spite of the very vigorous storm last night. So the weather added to the scene...but as I came out from registering for classes the very large rabbit and many many robins were casually lolling and hopping about on the grass in front of the car. I wanted to get up closer to take a picture. Such a beautiful rabbit. And so close to all the traffic, but somehow safe.

It felt very magical and I felt honoured for the moment. It reminded me of the day after I was married when my husband and I went to the Calgary Zoo and were so tired we just fell asleep on the grass and woke up to find dozens of rabbits hopping about all around us. And then we found we were locked in...but it was so magical we didn't care.

Today was not quite like that earlier moment, but still, it was a moment.
