Laughter, songs, and love
Life, liberty, pursuing happiness
These make living as good as it gets.
Got all these plus food, clothing, shelter, reasonably good health, and enough money to get by on? Yay! You're rich and can be grateful and thankful not just this week, but from now on.
Yeah, I get sentimentally sappy and preachy now that I'm old(er) and staring down the barrel of mortality. I have all those things today, and most people I know do, too. Man, are we lucky! The trick is to never forget it. The better trick would have been to learn it sooner.
