AFTER TAKING IN THE SPECTACULAR VIEW OF THE BIG, COLD
CANADIAN BANFF LAKE...
EMBRACED BY TALL, AMPLY-SNOW-COVERED, WILDLIFE-SATURATED, SOLID GRANITE MOUNTAINS ON THREE SIDES, THE HSR, TAKES A REALLY DEEP BREATH OF WHAT MUST BE THE PUREST AIR ON THE PLANET, JUST LIKE HIS THERAPIST SHOWED HIM,
THEN HOLDS IT IN FOR AT LEAST A MINUTE, THEN EXHALES REALLY SLOWLY, IN A CLASSIC MEDITATIVE FASHION, THEN LOOKS AROUND ON THE GROUND AND FINDS A SMOOTH, FLAT, COOKIE-SHAPED ROCK, INSPECTS IT CLOSELY WITH SCRATCHING AND RUBBING FINGERS, THEN TAKES A BIG PREPITCH WINDUP, THAT HAS HIM TURNING COMPLETELY AROUND THREE TIMES (SINCE NO ONE IS WATCHING, EXCEPT FOR THAT FAMILY OF POINTNG AND LAUGHING BEARS...
BEHIND THE TALL PINES), THEN HSR SPINS AROUND ONE MORE TIME THE OPPOSITE WAY, SORT OF LIKE WHAT AUSTIN POWERS WOULD DO, THEN SLINGS THE ROCK OUT WITH THE GREATEST AND FASTEST OF EASE, MAKING IT ZOOM PARALLEL TO THE LAKE’S SURFACE WHICH, ACCORDING TO THE LAWS OF PHYSICS, ALLOWS THE ROCK TO MAKE A GREATER NUMBER OF SKIPS ON THE WATER,
MAYBE FOUR, FIVE, AND IF SUPREMELY LUCKY, SIX OF THEM, because this was just one of the things that the HSR did when he was a kid, and, by the way, your “I know we went to that ski resort that cost a lot of money and all, but I only wanted to stay in the ski lodge and sit and watch the large exciting fire in the fireplace” smile,
is being called to the principal’s office for the major infraction of taking an extra meatball in the lunch line!

“With all of the writings done on iPads, computers, and
phones and such, will cursive writing become a lost art?”
Experiencing, exploring and enjoying our lives with optimism, inspiration,
gratitude, love, laughter, and sincere
smiling infuses and strengthens us with many short-term and long-term
physiological benefits, including helping us to:
-burn about 50 calories from a 10-15 minute bout of
continuous, rollicking giggling
-bump up the level of infection-fighting antibodies like salivary immunoglobulin A (IgA)
-use therapeutic humor to improve mindset
-lighten up and not take life too seriously
-attract other people toward us
-handle loss, resentments, disagreements, and sadness better
-improve cerebrovascular and cardiovascular flow and
resilience
-develop effective coping mechanisms using rationalization
-develop senses of
humor
-reinforce priceless, pleasant memories
May you have many…what do those high fashion super models
think about when sashaying down the runway to have that far away look on their
faces?...when someone wants to run their fingers through your hair—just be
thankful that you have hair!...you are what you think, how you feel, and you are what you accomplish!…smiles!
