Blog of the Century!



We butchered our first rabbit; it was an awesome experience! Extreme simplicity and the meal was the ultimate in taste, a major culinary Event!! A self-reliance shocker!!!

 Along with the rabbit, can you taste some thinly veiled sarcasm?

 I am sick of exclamation points. I am tired of the media touting everything as the latest wonder, miracle, or other superlative. I don't want to be told to go for the gusto, live large, follow my passion, or DFTBA (don't forget to be awesome).

Stop.
Think.
Reflect.

 A life of all hill-top moments is exhausting and unsustainable. Life is daily. It is lived in seconds and minutes in the valleys. It is savoring the real and the common. It is whispering care and concern for our families and friends and world, not shouting our egos abroad. How can we be mindful of our lives if we are too caught up pretending that the minors are the majors?
 
Yes, there are wonders in this world but you won't find them on Facebook.

 DFTBA?

Let's strive for DFTBM--don't forget to be mindful--instead.

    1. That's what relatives are for! And to drive each other nuts, of course.
