I have noticed that people with a simple approach to life talk about vegetables excitedly.
I work with a lot of older folks (my age) when I work shows - it's just the nature of the beast. I did last night. And talk came around to vegetables.
"My neighbor posted that she has some green peppers and jalopenos from her garden to give away! I hope they are still there tomorrow. I love green peppers!"
Who loves green peppers? Who gets excited about vegetables?
The next topic was mufffin recipes. A co-worker uses orange juice in one of her recipes - apparently this is a radically inventive appproach that results in the greatest muffins ever invented.
My gut reaction was - and always has been - you have to be kidding me. This is what you talk about when you get out of the house?
Then I got to thinking - I have not been experiencing much happiness lately - lots of stress (I got a lot to talk to you about). In fact, I have not experienced my fair share of happiness throughout the history of my life.
Maybe if I got excited about vegetables I would be happier and healthier.
It's possible I don't have all the answers.
