Life frequently surprises us with unforeseen twists that can leave us momentarily at a loss for words, prompting us to reassess our beliefs.

While these changes may initially feel disorienting or unsettling, they often transform into captivating memories—experiences we can reflect on, recount to others, and eventually find humor in as time goes on.

I was telling a client about a guy I met where I spend my summers. A real piece of work who had a bad reputation in town because he was caught cheating on his wife more than once and flashed money around like he was rich. He blew all his money trying to develop some property and now was running out of businesses in town who would work with him.
She asked his name. It was her fiancé. So now I’m on the phone with my client who is crying because she was planning her wedding to a guy who had no money but a wife.
I was the supervisor for a brand-new catering venue in our town. Our first wedding was your typical affair, pipe and drape, plenty of white everywhere, lovely people.
At a year anniversary, our salespeople email the client. Turns out, the best man was having an affair with the bride the whole time she was engaged, and after they were married.
