It's not a new idea, but the guided meditations I'm listening

to every day emphasize that we make our own reality.
Today it's raining.  I need to find/buy an umbrella.  But as
we take our regular Saturday morning drive to the
market, I notice the rain drops on every tree branch,
shining and luminous like jewels, and I feel completely
content.

Maybe that's what I've learned or relearned in the
Month of Change -- the incredible power of the mind
to control our moods.  My point of view.  I do think
I'm lucky to have been born on the happy side.  No
specific reason why.  But super glad to have been
born into a family of mostly funny people, to have
married a kind and funny man, and to have raised a
couple of very cheerful and funny sons.

There it is.  The answer to existence according to
my current sources.  Enjoy the wonderful parts of your life.

Have a singing like the birds because it's raining day.
