Happiness. It's relative.
Posted on February 10, 2014 by Jan Wilberg
What can you say in 10 minutes? These 10 things:
1. Snowboarding is hot-dogging made into an Olympic sport.
2. Figure skaters’ costumes are amazing. I wish I could have one to wear around the house.
3. I don’t care if Michael Sam is gay and I wish nobody else did either.
4. If I had it to do over again, I’d be the guy who does Humans of New York.
5. I had a rich uncle once who had servants and a cook. It made for great feelings of inferiority.
6. Do other people feel guilty about not being a good enough dog owner?
7. Why do people dread something they love doing? In my case, it’s going to master’s swimming class.
8. Getting off a plane somewhere warm and going to the car rental place is one of the top five joys of my life.
9. I don’t think I should put off reading really decent literature much longer.
And
10. This started off as “20 Minute Yoo-Hoo” but I could only think of 10 things before time ran out.

What happens here on Red's Wrap is all over the map. There is no single theme, no overarching gripe, no malady of my own or others that dominates. I write about what seems important or interesting at the moment and what aims me toward hope. I write stories, essays, poems - whatever fits the day and the mood. Nothing stays the same, here or anywhere. That's a good thing. Happiness. It's relative.
