OK, I have to say this. Isn't life a joy to be savoured? Has the dark melodrama on the media taken the zest for life and its little miracles away?
I love my flowers! I watch a little puppy dancing and chuckle.
I was standing still and watching a truck pick up a large garbage bin from a property. As I was admiring the care of the driver, the smooth operation of the cable pulling it onto the truck base and the design in balancing the weight of the bin and the stability of the truck, a married mid-aged couple walked by. They looked at me, looked at the bin and then back at me with a puzzled look on their faces. I told them that I was admiring the whole design process to make such things possible for both consumers and the service providers. They laughed at me at first, then got quiet and continued their walk. Next time we met, I was gently teased about my interest in mechanical things.
i see them regularly now and they always stop to talk, sharing about something.
There is so much good going on. Don't lose sight of that and celebrate it! Stepping off my podium now
I wholeheartedly agree with you Razz, having a way to look at all the miracles around and appreciate what people, machines and nature all have to share helps make things so much better! I think easier for some people to do than others, but baby steps might work. Just look at the sky three times a day!
