This Is All Right With Me

I shall never wear a tam-o-shanter in Scotland,
Yet I am satisfied for this is all right with me.
I shall never play my tambourine to a crowd of ten thousand,
Yet I am happy for this is all right with me.

An inkling of King Solomon’s wisdom tells me I will never see Saar,
Yet, I am satisfied, for who can see it on Pinterest? Me.
Eventually I will probably see all of this and more from a heavenly catbird seat.
And this is more than enough to make my heart happy.

While I am still hoping to get to Scotland someday, I am alright if I don't - it's all about perspective!

I like NOT being on an AIRPLANE. Too much sitting, not talking, everyone being rude to each other.

That's the best part of the rest of one's life. This one inspires me.
