To the students of my old high school (Notre Dame Burlington, Iowa——and most of my other friends and family as well—
Today’s post is going to be short. Believe me it’s not that I don’t have a ton to be thankful for, because if a person doesn’t think theyhavethingsto be grateful for, they aren’t. Looking very hard. For example, be thankful that the phone was invented because in this time of. Sheltering in place the phone and the internet )made possible by the phone ) are two avenues of staying informed, fed, and entertained right from home. Since we need to wash our hands a lot,be thankful that we have indoor plumbing because going. Up the hill to fetch a pale of water and then heating it up to wash our hands would be a real pain. I also want to say thanks to all my friends (even all the facebook ones) who have proven we still value a diversity of thought in our country and are not afraid. To express an opinion. I have seen an amazing mix of concern, outrage, humor, patriotism, and good old fashion love in the face of something scary. People. Have employed creative ways to support each other and give some thought to what is “essential.” We have disagreed on some things, however we have attacked each other’s ideas not them personally. These are all things I have seen without looking very haard. In short, we have paid attention to the better angels of our nature (a Notre Dame reference). This reminds me of a couple of quotes and since I said I was keeping. This short I will end today with two quotes and market the fact. That tomorrow will be a podcast day and the final installment. In the “toilet paper monologues—just subscribe to peace and joy 505 5he podcast on all the major platforms—
Okay enough for my commercial...A sincere thanks to all of you and here’s the quotes.
- This is from the minimalists—-Use things and love. People because the opposite just doesn’t work.”
- Speak from your heart to show your genuine beliefs are right. And true and listen with. Your mind as if you may be wrong.
