A Tiny Miracles Are Everywhere story
So I’m at a costume 5K run—lots of superheroes, one confused pirate, and me, in a full banana suit 🍌 because peer pressure is real. I’m mid-jog, sweating through my potassium, when a little kid on the sidelines yells: “GO, BIG YELLOW BEAN!”
With playful enthusiasm, I yell back, “I’m a BANANA!”😲
The moment is fueled by joy and absurdity, with the image of a bright banana capturing my excitement.
He shouts, “NO, YOU’RE NOT!”🙎
His exaggerated tone adds drama, as if convincing the world I’m not a banana.
I suddenly realize, we’re in a spirited shouting match about fruit identity?
The absurdity fills the air with infectious energy as I dash forward, each step a leap into a fantastical world.
Glancing back, I see his determined face, a mix of disbelief and amusement. Our playful rivalry sparks my creativity, imagining embodying other fruits like apples or oranges, painting my afternoon with friendship and imagination.

Cut to the finish line:
He’s there, waiting. Holding a sign that says, “YOU’LL ALWAYS BE A BEAN TO ME.”
And Honestly?
I respect it.
Bean. Banana. Legend.
Still the proudest race I’ve ever lost.
