Another Lesson Learned About Being Blessed
walking away satisfied
returning home fully recharged
that will change come thursday morning
i will focus my brain on forgetting....until the alarm goes off
as i unpack, i begin to think about how blessed i really am
my friend maurice mohammed reminded me of that recently
i take a look outside my window and a smile appears as i lightly nod my head
amazingly i am thinking about the scenic route for next summer
all of a sudden, the salty air seems to be coming from each vent in the apartment
i can taste the lobster potatoes
i can taste the alaskan whitefish
i can taste the grilled jumbo shrimp salad
i can taste the buttery garlic breadsticks
i can taste the tropical colada....and i do not even drink!
then a vision of a hot tub completes the overtaking of my mind
it is then that i get another smack on my butt
with a goofy laugh and a playful sprint, i am brought back to reality
....another lesson learned about Being Blessed....
