- The Fourth of July. It’s passed now, but it’s still my very favorite holiday and the happy effects linger.
- Having the money (sort of) to afford an upgrade to first class on my trip to Nashville. It’s not that different and probably not worth it on a relatively short trip like this, but the flight attedants are nicer to you.
- The cows who produced the milk I drank with my coffee this morning and the chickens who laid the eggs I ate and especially the pig who died for my strip of bacon. I hope their suffering was not great but I’m afraid it was. Lokah samasta sukhino bavantu.
- The warmth of the sunshine coming through the airplane window. We’re descending through clouds now and it’s gradually fading – which makes me appreciate it more.
- My glasses.
Many thanks,
Me
