In Vegas, next door to the M&M store, is the Coca Cola store. Lots of things to choose from, but three of us settled on sharing a tray of flavors from around the world.
I was surprised how many of them were some sort of tea. Alas, even with three of us, I think we only emptied about 4 of the cups. Many of the flavors were too strong with only a sip. So glad I didn’t go it alone!
Moral of the Story: A little help from your friends goes a long way.
Bliss by Eric Weiner was an interesting mission to seek out what happiness means to people around the world.
This was an intriguing read. In Eric’s travels around the world, he talked with people from each area asking what made them happy. The answer varied from place to place: friends, family, free time, work, money, and alcohol availability were just a few of the answers.
I read this slowly, and didn’t finish in time for book group. I couldn’t get into it at first. It took me about 6 months to complete, as the least. Perhaps it will go more quickly for you. For me, happiness was not reading this book, but having finished it after so long a time.
The image I’ve selected for this portrays two of the things in life that put a smile in my heart: reading and pets.
Word of the Day: Wonder
On my first day of biology in High School, the teacher said he could teach us many things, but he couldn’t teach us how the human being stands on two feet. If we believed in God, we had our answer. If not, there is no answer.
Since then, I often wonder of His many creations. Humans and birds waddling around on merely two feet, birds with feathers, cats with hair, and moose who hold their heads up with those giant antlers. God is a Wonder and Delight to me.
