Every now and then, you see something that makes you smile.
Not a polite smile, like what people do after a really bad joke.
For example, What did one snowman say to another?
Smells like carrots.
Not a chuckle or a chortle, not a smirk, but a genuine smile. A smile that you used to do when you were a kid. Like when you got that perfect birthday present, or a new bike, or meeting the Ninja Turtle ‘live’ at Universal Studio’s. After so many years, I still believe that that one moment, with the Ninja Turtle, was a moment of purest joy that I have ever experienced. Thanks Mom and Dad.
While this was not a moment of pure joy, this was a moment of happiness. This thing made me smile like a little kid.
Seriously. That’s BRILLIANT.
And, for a sprinkle of philosophy in this post:
Sometimes you’re the snake, and sometimes you’re the bird.
i think you should’ve ended your philosophical tidbit with:
“… either way you are fucked.”
seems kind of appropriate.
