Relax

Some days are made for not thinking. This is one of them. It is warm. My brain is slow.
I am tired. A day like this is when you put down the smartphone or iPod or whatever keeps your attention. Find a place to just sit and put up your feet. Rediscover birds and sunsets. Hum a tune. Don't think. Just enjoy the peace of doing nothing. Which I will do as soon as I find the time.

Scream!!

Here's an interesting piece of advice that I hope I never have to follow. If you get a leg cramp so painful that it makes you scream, be sure to scream "Cramp!". That so people won't think you are having a heart attack and call 911. This will save expense, time, and trouble. It will also save you a lot of embarrassment. That's always a good thing.

Rule the world?

From Gilligan's Island.
 Villain: "Mr. Howell, how would you like to rule the world?"
Howell: "Rule it? I'd rather buy it and hire someone to run it."
Mr. Howell has it right. There is nothing wrong in being rich or even fabulously wealthy, but some want to grab all they can until they have more than they or their great, great, great, grandchildren can spend. Having it all would be nice, but why do you want more?

BILLIONS!!

There are billions and billions of people on earth and we each have our own fingerprint that matches no one else. And, aside from identical twins, no one has our DNA. Each of us have our own personal voiceprint and retina.  These are used to show our own special identity. No one can have exactly what we have. Yet, with the billions and billions of people we have only four blood types. Only four. I think it is miraculous. We can share our blood with others that cannot match us in other way. Without harming ourselves, we can give blood to save lives. It's a happy thought.

HAPPY FORTH!!

I just want to say, happy Forth of July. I am thankful to live in such a blessed country. We have our trials, troubles and imperfections, but these are things we are free to work on and improve and fuss about when things don't go our way. Go, Red, White and Blue!!!

Myth

I love a play on words. There is a book series I haven't read, but I love the tittles. I am forced to share them with you. Yes, I am. You won't believe me, but it's true. The titles are Myth-ing Persons, Another Fine Myth, Myth Conceptions, Myth Directions, Hit or Myth and Myth-ion Improbable. They are at the very least, amusing. So smile. Have a slap-happy day.

PAY ATTENTION TO ME!!

I was sitting in the courtyard of our local library reading magazines while my pre-school nephew played. "What is that?" he asked.  I causally looked up and realized he was talking about a sound. "That's a car," I said and went back to the magazine. "What's that?" he asked again. I barely looked up. "I think that's a car." "What is that?" My mind was still on the magazine. "I think it's a motorcycle." The next thing I knew, he was standing right in front of me, he's face close to mine. "Look me in the eyeballs," he said. "What is that?" "A car," I said. After he had gotten my mind on him and not my magazine he was satisfied and went back to playing. I guess that is what some people want. Just to know that once in a while they have your full attention.
