A-OK Today!

Gratefully, as far as I know, nothing is wrong with my in-laws or out-laws. By that I mean no one appears to be in the throes of some crisis, medically or psychologically ailing, or otherwise suffering.

To the best of my knowledge, no one’s out of work that doesn’t intend to be, everyone has a roof over their heads, and the whole gang is paying their way and their taxes.

Did I say I’m grateful? Please make that profoundly grateful!

The coolest part of making this many orbits around the sun is I have seen a season or two of want and of plenty. I’ve gained some perspective. I know tough times don’t last and the good ones don’t either and that both will come around again.

Which is why, this ordinary day towards the latter part of a lot of folks’ workweek, school week, and treatmeat week, I’m just so abundantly thrilled that nothing in particular is going on.

In fact, there are some smatterings of great – a couple of engagements, a 50th anniversary coming up, a successful business trip, and a clean bill of health.

Sometimes, in the absence of chaos, it’s easy to forget how magical those events really are.

May we always pay as much or more attention to the wonderful as we do to the not so.

Happy Thursday!!!
