simple pleasures are the best.

took a shower last night and felt like a new man.
I take showers all the time but for some
reason this shower just changed my whole outlook on life.
silly really, but still� something so simple
making me so happy. who knew?

i�m blaming everything on osama bin laden.
everything. all of it
it is the only thing to do�

�getting cold outside.�
�yep. its bin laden�s fault.
and it will keep getting cold until he is captured.�

�got a flat tire.�
�yeah? its bin laden�s fault ya know.
we will keep getting flat tires until he is brought to justice. �

�light bulb burned out.�
�its bin laden�s fault.
it is his plot to keep us in the dark.
he must be stopped.�

etc, etc,� you get the idea.
what else can you blame on him?
unemployment, the sinking economy,
reduction of civil rights. the list is endless.

i think everyone should be able to take a nap
in the middle of the day. think about
it. the big office complex with all the cubicles.
naptime hits and everyone pulls out
their mats & blankets. the lights get dimmed.
the soft sounds of employees dreaming of wings.
a zen sense of calm amidst the laptops & files.

then, when naptime is over, the cups of
coffee & tea. the cooler talk about dreams.
the sense of renewal and happiness.
it would change everything.

------------- ------------------- ---------------

may all of you have a great weekend.
give someone a hug.
buy a stranger a coffee.
get laid.
make love.
call a long lost friend.
start reading that book.
start writing that book.
dream.
dream a lot.

and take a good shower.

�I�m not down
I�m just not looking up too far
every time I take a look at the sky
I�m reminded of how small we are.

I�m not down
I�m just not looking up too far
I would rather hold your hand on this earth
than keep reaching for the stars.�
