Im moving away to make it easier for you
thats ok, this is quite a good arrangement.
You cant hear this brif exchange of words, but it happens here, look. That guy has parked in an highly unconventional reverse mode in Tesco,s garage. The other guy, has managed to utilise the same pump, whilst the previous fella shops for his groceries. In fifteen years time, Tesco,s, a nationalised and licenced corporation for the retailing of goods on public highways, will discover a contraflow system which will increase their UK turnover nationally, by 4.7 million euros a day. That short exchange was the seed of this considerable change. In another possible universe .. And there are so many... The exchange could have meant something far more limited in it,s potential for outward change but far more advancing of the progress of each of our brief protagonists in their journeys through purgatory.....
these kind of moments are 'speech ghosts'. You may have had the experience, in life of saying something inadvertently and seemingly mundane in response to one set of circumstances only to find with a weighty surprise, that you have just made some inner revelation, with life changing scope. It is almost as if some, perhaps benevolent, but perhaps cruel spectre has voiced your thoughts for you. If you listen there might be some direction to be found. Of course, this is the only way we can do it. We aren't allowed to conspire to bring, in this case, two cars together, but we can influence your choice of words, making you say the thing [in this case] that you had been keeping stowed and silent inside your head: "I am moving away to make things easier for you".... It was a statement of truth which was profoundly accurate at every level of this mans existence. His next action will be to take the day off work. Unlike my impoverished efforts at chicken coup building, this guy heeds the apparently abstract warning and his life will change from here. Choices will remain open to him. But in this moment, things could have gone a different way. It was one of those moments....
And then, there was the other mans response: "Thats ok, this is quite a good arrangement"... Well, he was jut talking about the rear to rear bumper parking and that, as I explained also found it,s ultimate
realisation. A seminal moment, they call it...
Thanks for your attention in these matters. Your responses will be forwarded verbatim and without quantitative embellishment. As I said the bosses are consummate mathematicians... If you would like to add anything else, there,s a comments book by the exit. End.
