A thought for this Sunday

Did you ever see an unhappy horse? Did you ever see bird that had the blues? One reason why birds and horses are not unhappy is because they are not trying to impress other birds and horses.

Have you ever seen a bird that didn’t look happy?

I haven’t.

Simply happy to be alive.

To watch the sun rise.

To fly.

Getting on with the business of life.

Never stopping, never whining, never giving up.

Never expecting anything more.

There’s a lesson in there, somewhere.
