“I’ll tell your future if you’d like. I have a deck of tarot cards. Or I can read you palm.”
I’m headed to a new doctor today, off in the big city – Seattle. I hadn’t thought of it before but doctors are a little like fortune tellers. The fortune teller can hint and suggest, leaning on your interpretation of truth, hope and reality. Doctors? They don’t deal in juju. But they can spread out your future in front of you. They can proverbially read your palm and, unlike a fortune teller, possibly make it happen.
Coming from an intimate knowledge of medicine through family physicians, I’d say that the analogy of doctors and fortune tellers is pretty accurate. I reserve judgment on accurately telling the future, however.
This is amazing! Look at all the details! Wish you all the best regarding your appointment with the doctor.
Love the “hula hoops” at the back – is she going to let you do the hula hoop and then predict the future from that? Mine would be easy – you are not going to be an expert hula hooper. LOL
Good luck in Seattle – driving and at the doctor.
I always thought being a Gypsy Fortune Teller would be a hoot! Now where is my crystal ball?
Best wishes to you as you seek out additional medical help. Glad you bypassed this colorful charlatan, too! It’s amazing how, in spite of everything science has taught us, people still seek to cure themselves by magic.
Nice colorful photo. And what were you doing waiting in line for a fortune teller? I hope your doctor’s appointment goes well. I went to a specialist today for a minor chronic condition and he made some suggestions that might help IF I stop eating anything that has any taste and that I like. I am starting to decide that this minor condition is not so bad.
