THINGS I AM GRATEFUL FOR (for fun)
By Sami Sunchild

That the floor is under us where it can catch all sorts of things that we spill or drop.  It would have been very inconvenient if it were on the ceiling.

That we have two legs.  That number is just right.  Three would have been too many and one is not enough.

That the liquid on our planet is water.  If it had been coffee or cola or split pea soup it would not have been nearly as convenient or versatile.

That our teeth are located inside our mouths and not outside, or on our backsides where they would have been very uncomfortable to sit on.

Talk about intelligent design, it is wonderful that tails on dogs and fish and birds are all behind them.  If they were in front it could interfere with their eyesight and it might cause accidents.

Have you ever thought about what it would be like if the world turned left to right instead of the way it does now?  You'd just be getting ready for bed and the sun would come up!

And what if the equator slid up or down a little?  The hemispheres would no longer both be the same size, they wouldn't match!

About the Universal Law of Lost Keys and Other Objects: have you ever noticed that it's not really them that are lost; it's you!  You lost your proximity to them, your time, your mind and your cool.

~ Love from Sami Sunchild,
who has her tongue in her cheek, her feet on the ground and stars in her eyes and who is presently aged eighty one and eleven twelfths years old and is really happy to be alive.
