Other than the time in the Army, I’ve always lived within sight of, or in, mountains. Seeing them always gives my spirits a lift. Not seeing them last summer and fall during the horrific wildfire smoke was depressing.
This must be a philosophical morning because I’m thinking of the small pleasures in my life.
.Seeing the mountains.
.Watching Banner enjoying our walks.
.A good cup of coffee.
.My sons sharing their small life victories with me.
The large events going on, stolen elections, wearing filthy rags over my mouth, overreaching government officials, etc., are largely beyond my control. I need to enjoy the small pleasures as they come.
