~ Douglas Coupland
My mother is
extraordinary, beautiful and quite spry.
She is also is a formidable force, but she may have met her match in the
very heavy wooden chairs at Starbucks.
We went for a late Sunday breakfast and were gathering chairs, so that
all of us could sit around one of the tables.
When I realized how heavy they were, I told her to let me or one of my
children get them. But she was
determined and began lifting one of the chairs to carry it to our table. A gentleman seated close by sprang to his
feet and carried it for her.
