Maybe; Happy

Friday, March 28, 2025

Good morning, that wonderful way.

Smiles for breakfast. O/

Cool, comfortable, it’s going to be a nice day smiles.

Life’s actually pretty good smiles.

Add those to your bowl of cereal; they can float with the marshmallows.

Sometimes it’s good to be positive on purpose. It helps set it on auto-pilot.

Auto-pilot engaged.

On with our show.

Problematic Ecstatic: We view happiness as an endpoint, an ideal state.

But happiness is a temporary thing like a cool breeze in Summertime on a nice warm day.

A quick cool from the wind, then the nice warm day lasts and you’re glad and grateful for it.

Glad grateful is sustainable; happy is not.

Happiness shows for moments, checks in, cheers up, and back to glad for you.

Sunshine and happiness can’t last all day.

Grateful and glad to be, is our best state.

Let happy take care of itself, a present for a good life.

Even Abe occasionally out of nowhere dashes happy for a toy or stick and sprints circles around the backyard, then back to his regularly scheduled calm glad.

Maybe it’s a spontaneous dance step or two walking from one room to another.

Maybe a memory causes a smile.

Maybe a phone call from an old friend.

When a positive maybe makes and ‘is,’ happy moments follow, followed by an easy glad.

A little better than okay, that’s the best state to be in.

Sunrise caught up to Daylight Saving Time and returns at a respectable hour.

An old friend in some unfinished stories of mine is wondering why I haven’t checked in for awhile.

Maybe I’ll check in.

Take care, may a good maybe or two find you while you make a wonderful day.
