An Entry - Sans Diary Life These Days

Today was beautiful!
Super fantastic!
I smiled all day and it was contagious!
Perfect strangers grinned and made small talk
About the weather and gave directions
Without hesitation,
In detail!
The shop keeper invited me to have a good day,
Although I had only browsed...
So I came back and spent forty-two dollars.
Why not?
Today the world was my oyster!
Today I was the Mona Lisa!
Cleopatra!
A rare black opal!
Hey all you people!
Look - A - Here!
Somebody loves me!
Somebody loves me!
