Random Great Things

A few random, great things

- Digging a hand into a jacket pocket, or the pocket of a pair of pants you haven't worn in a while, and finding money. It doesn't matter if it's only a dollar. It's the surprise of finding it there that's great.

- Perusing your music library and finding a hidden gem song you missed when you first purchased the CD, or rediscovering a great song from the past. I'll find one of these songs and wear it out for a couple months.

- Riding the train. I don't care if it's an Amtrac train or a light rail subway-type train, riding the train is great.

- People watching at the airport. Watching the mass of humanity that flows through an airport on any given day is a study in human nature, and great fun.

- Reconnecting with an old friend. A friend is a friend. When life's path takes you in different directions and you can reconnect, it's great thing.

- The tired feeling after a good day’s work, or a great workout. It's not an exhausted feeling. It's a feeling of comfortable accomplishment.

- Football Saturday in the Fall. You don't even have to go to the game; just the events of a football Saturday are great.

- Relaxing with the Sunday New York Times. It used to be the paper version, now it's a digital version on my phone. Either way, it's great exercise for the brain.
