It crossed my mind... this morning... that today is Thanksgiving. I hadn't thought much about it lately; was I less grateful, now that the years begin to speak in tongues and roll around on the floor inside my head? Maybe I am getting too much sun because I don't understand what I just said; “oh, you poor man! Come on up out of this heat and sit on the porch with us and I'll fix you a nice mint julep.” I don't think I've ever had a mint julep. It sounds kinda gay.
I kept thinking. Was I less grateful now than I have been? Then it dawned on me. I start every day with a prayer of gratitude before The Sun, and my days are filled with spontaneous outbursts of gratitude... in an atmosphere of sotto voce. I am grateful all day long now, as much grateful for what is... as for what is not; grateful for things that do not happen... or stand around waiting to happen... in a climate of apprehension, and grateful again... that I do not worry even a little bit about The Future cause The Future is Now! I don't worry about anything.
Now I am really thinking about that and it's true. I do not worry at all. I might even change my social media icon to Alfred E. Neuman, but then I realize that he didn't worry because he is an idiot. I don't think I'm an idiot and then it hits me that I can't be an idiot because I think. Just my saying I don't think I am an idiot is proof that I am not an idiot. More people should try that cause it is a big help in threading your way through the idiots who stand around like schools of fish, watching banks of televisions through store windows.
