✨ MAGIC OF THE DAY ✨

I went to Sainsbury’s for shopping food the other day. I usually smile at the cashier and ask them how they are and how their day is going.

.

Sometimes we have beautiful chats ending up about either my hair or their children. This time I asked to a new cashier how they were. They smiled and told me not many people talk to them.
.
They said they loved my eyes, I told them I loved theirs too. I can tell she was a very loving, nurturing and motherly woman which showed through her eyes. I told her exactly that. She smiled with joy, even laughed a bit receiving what I said. She confirmed that she is. Then told me about her children, nieces etc while we had a queue started to grow behind us, she didn’t seem to care 😃
.
I told her she has so much love to give and she’s a blessing in her childrens’, nephews’ and nieces’ lives. Before I left, she asked me to spell my name on a piece of receipt. She said she’ll light a candle for me that night 😭 My heart literally melted. That night I lit a candle for her as well 🕯
.
If I created gratitude in someone’s life in 2 minutes to the point they’ll actually go and pray for me, that’s magic for me. It’s love, connection, purity and generosity and those things matter to me.
.
Even a “How’s your day going?” with presence can make such a big difference. A smile with eye contact can make someone feel appreciated, seen and heard. And as a side effect, you feel human and connected as well 😍
.
London can be a busy and overwhelming place where you might not seem to find time for anything. It can also be a magical place if you choose to create it ✨
.
When was the last time you asked a stranger about their day?
.
I’d love to hear if you experience those moments as well 🙏🏼
.
Love you ❤️
