PERCEPTIONS

 

PERCEPTIONS

Is this a dear little cottage or a spooky one?

It depends on your point of view.

 Another resident at Mum’s nursing home told me today that once, when she was sitting outside, her feet were so cold she couldn’t feel them.

But then they began to warm up, and she looked down to see two moles lying across her feet. They stayed there until her feet were toasty warm, then got up and walked away.

She said every time she remembers that day she feels the love.

 “That’s lovely,” I said - it’s all down to perceptions, after all.

I have strayed today from the Friday Fictioneers' guidelines, as every word of the above is true. I have some experience of dealing with people who have dementia, and I know that logic ceases to exist for them. OF course, what the old lady told me could have been true, couldn't it?!

Thanks to Rochelle as ever for hosting FF, and to Alicia Jamtaas for the photo of that lovely wood and cottage. You can read other stories by following the frog link from  https://rochellewisoff.com/ - after you've commented on my blog first, naturally!
