Nothing but Star Wars…

The sun sets on another day…

There is little else to consider sometimes but the moment, and the moment is something to consider. As I watched the sunset on this fourth I was amazed by its beauty, and I thought of all the people today who celebrated the fourth for new reasons.

I think it is awesome that the fourth of May has become such a great day for Star Wars fans. It is a day where people can say, “May the Fourth be with you” and mean a little more, and smile. It is an old phrase and when I saw it in the theaters a long time ago and far far away I was impressed with the myriad of magnificent meanings tied to this phrase.

So today, I hope to force is with you, because it surrounds us and binds us, and gives us the ability to be a little more. As you smile and laugh today take a moment, and remember, the force will be with you, no matter what.

Sleep sweet, love life, and giggle with me please…

New heights…

The sun sets on another day…

You might think I’m strange, but I enjoyed sunset last night as snow fell silently in the night to warm ground that didn’t let it last for more than a few seconds. As I slowly burned Jack pine trimmings in the burn barrel, I shined my flashlight to the sky and watched the snowflakes sparkle as the sun set somewhere high above.

You know a lot of times we take for granted how good our day is. It’s funny really that when you have a good day when the next day comes many people expect a better day and eventually the days can’t get much better. Sure, sometimes they do, but often when we slip just a little it seems like we’re having a bad day, but we are not.

It is said that someone “wept when I had no shoes until I met a man with no feet”. It has been stated several times in several ways and is actually an old proverb and from Shakespeare. It is there that we sometimes have an issue. We are so concerned about how things are going that we don’t realize how good they are. Take a deep breath, hold it in, and think about all the people that can’t even do that. Oh, you can breathe now, don’t forget to breathe.

All I’m trying to say is that as we reach new heights in happiness don’t forget that you are still happy. As we find our way don’t forget that there was a path to get us there. It’s actually pretty easy stuff.

So as the sun sets on another day, today was a pretty good day. I even got to see some fun people that I hadn’t seen in a while. Tomorrow will be good too just because and for no other reason than that. I hope you can say the same and find a way every day, no matter what.

Sleep sweet, love life, and enjoy the eve…
