It's been a theme throughout this blog that it's always the 'little things' that trip us up.
Yesterday this blogger locked all his keys, including car key in car boot. Neighbour with key was out of town, friend with other key was in south Kerry.
Just that simple silly thing of leaving a key in the wrong place and the follow-on events that make life such a pain and so full of anxiety.
A great example of how fragile our lives are and yet so often we think we are indestructible.
How do we cope with pain and suffering, loss and tragedy? And yet we do. We get up and go on.
That 'little thing' yesterday also showed this blogger the nastiness of some people but the wonderful kindness of others. Again, the usual story and the usual suspects.
