Isn't It Great! A little guy I barely know approached me today with a shoe in his hand. He was wearing the mate. He thrust the shoe toward me so I could inspect it carefully. He spoke with a delighted squeal, saying, "I got the pink-eye and I stepped in dog poop! Isn't it great!"

I was surprised. Yep, there was the dog poop... and the pink eye.

Is it great?

If he thought it was great, then it must indeed be great. I'm looking forward to the next 'pink-eye-and-dog- poop' situation, metaphorically speaking. I want to try out that attitude.

He was certainly contagious.  ¶ 9:18 AM
