I won these bubbles in a co-worker’s kid’s school raffle in 2009, after purchasing a raffle ticket. At the time, I didn’t really think much about it. Even though the bottle was marked “Priceless” it was always low on my list to open. Was it priceless to the original owner because they packed it carefully on a trip back from Italy? Priceless because it was Franciacorta? Priceless because of the producer? I’m not sure but I will say it was priceless to me because I opened it for my Birthday a few days ago.
Instead of sharing it, I decided I wanted to drink this bottle by myself. Which isn’t like me but I needed a moment. I’m just happy to still be here. Living, traveling, loving life.
Happy for the people I know already and feeling happy to meet the people I haven’t met just yet.
Cheers to life. May we connect soon.
