The Good Life

Life is too short to put up
with people who slow you down
or bring you down.
We all need to put more things into
our life which not only
brings us joy but new challenges as well.
I love what I do and the company I keep.
Everyone who knows me, knows that
I enjoy a good laugh,
whether with friends over a glass of wine
or catching up with Seinfeld.
Most everyone knows that I dabble
in the challenge which the game of golf
presents and of course, everyone knows
that I enjoy a good meal. I am surrounded at home
with people who have a passion for cooking
and I too have taken a dip into the pond.
Recently it was Japanese, then homemade pasta...
don't even ask how good are my burgers...
an academic approach-perhaps
but adventurous none the less.

The outdoor season at our house is fast approaching,
and while on my days off, I will still be found mowing
and blowing around the yard or
hitting balls on the greens
I may at the same time,
have a pot of something brewing on the stove
or readying something for the grill
and always, relaxing under the sun.
No matter how you choose to do it,
just make sure ...you to do it and enjoy it.
