Thought
for Today
“An optimist thinks this is the best of all possible
worlds – a view also shared by the pessimist.”

EXPLAINERS OF THE PICTURES
You have to have time ….
You got to take the time ….
You have to ask the right questions ….
Then you might find four or five
in every nursing home who has
the great photos – in a drawer within ….
As I said, “It takes time.”
“It takes putting yourself out of the picture
“It takes putting yourself out of the picture
or placing yourself in a bottom drawer.”
It takes a compliment.
It takes a question or two.
It takes follow up questions ….
Then they show you a picture
and you find out the reason for their
smile and how they got their wisdom.

WATCHING
There has been a lot of watching
going on since the beginning of time.
I’m sure cave men – and women –
sat on rocks – outside caves –
watching the world – going on.
Then comes the Evening News –
the reporting on what we’ve seen
that day. I assume that’s where
evolution really takes place – where
brains develop and learning happens.
It’s still happening – people hanging
out windows all around the world –
I'd guess women more than men -
but I don't know - watching, figuring out
what’s happening– what’s evolving –
what’s developing – learning happening.

PERPETUAL HELP
Everyone of us at times is a little kid
lost and looking for our mother –
especially when we can’t breathe –
especially when people are on our back –
especially when we need help – and
sometimes that’s a deep down perpetual
feeling: “Help! Where are you Momma?"
We’ve lost our way – our shoes are falling
off and we don’t know where to run. "Help!"
