Preparing for the Race

-
Hi, how are you?  Slept well, I hope?Friend, the bit of rain in the wee hours has brought a coolness and a freshness to the air. The birds like a choir all thrilling a different  sound, most harmonious to the ear.  Even the sky seems to have a different blue hue!  Aah...such peace before the rush of the day's activities. Thank-you Spirit for these gifts, for lifting my spirits to a place of calm.

Taken from Trinidad Guardian, March 2013  Here is the ad I mentioned in a previous writing.  Hope you can read it (take our the magnifying glass, if you can't).  For me, the advertising firm, Ross Advertising can win the Happiness Award!   I started  internet searching  using the word, happiness,  about 4 years ago  when I was at a low ebb and  boy can you ever find variations on a theme!   Some are seeking to build a better society, while others point to individual happiness. What we perceive as happiness is as varied as all other things God has made. It's interesting, this thing happiness, that we all seek and it seems it comes through the incremental things we do.  For some people it is found in hard work or having money in the bank, the smell of a baby, your pet coming to greet you, standing on a podium giving a speech,liming with the boys, the smell that comes out of the hot earth as the rain beats down, the delight in a...

Why I Bother?
