Not-so-randomly forgotten Montreal, QC October 2018 Photo originally shared on Instagram |
When I was a child patient in this very institution, these little packets of Kraft peanut butter and jam became something of a touchstone for me. In my 4-year-old mind, they represented a rare moment of sweetness and home in a place that didn't always feel like either.
To this day, I stop dead in my tracks whenever I see them. Weird, I know. So you can imagine my mindset as I rounded the corner and saw these sitting, forgotten, in an otherwise empty line of chairs in a corridor. Perhaps the universe is messing with me again. Wouldn't be the first time of late, and definitely wouldn't be the last.
Either way, I hope whoever forgot these here ultimately found whatever sweetness they were looking for.
