Simple Things

Hello, this is Scott.

You know, you don't notice simple things that you take for granted until you experience them again.  For example:  

-I woke up today and I was still here and breathing.  This may seem like something that we expect to happen, but it really is amazing that it happens.  Thank you Hashem.

-I was born.  Out of X Million amount of sperm, I was the one who got through.  This really gives one a sense of how strong we are and how lucky we are to even be here.

-I have an amazing woman who Loves me.  I am so lucky to have her, its really nice when you find your Besheret.

-Today I decided to turn off the television shut off my computer and just listened to an album in full.  The album that I chose was Pink Floyd's "Wish You Were Here."   The album is so rich in its style and instrumentation.  Although the tone of the album is rather gloomy, there is a certain beauty to it if you just close your eyes, shut off of your mind for 45 minutes and just experience the music.  It's pretty groovy.

It's these little things that make up life, that we take for granted.  Its nice when you notice these things and begin to value them even more.

Well, I seem to be rambling again.  Take care and try enjoy the simple things, you'll like it.  I promise.

B'Shalom

Scotty
