Three Things to Think About

I've just visited one of my favorite places on the web, and the writer asked readers to consider answering these questions.


What gave me unexpected pleasure?

What am I proudest of today?

What did I do for someone else today?


1. Unexpected pleasure?
A gentleman (about 50-ish) was ushered into the newsroom where I work. He'd heard an interview I'd done with the Mayor of Detroit. He said to me, "I've never heard such pointed questions in an interview before." He shook my hand. He was looking at me with such respect. That look gave me a rush of deep, unexpected pleasure.
(Ok. Don't say it. I KNOW it sounds egomaniacal.
But only because it IS egomaniacal.

: )
Just let me enjoy my sin of pride for a few seconds, ok?


2. I am proudest of the fact that, although I strayed off my diet HORRIBLY yesterday, I am back on track today.

3. In terms of doing something for others, I am sending my nephew a little gift for his just announced marriage plans. God bless him as he starts this "adventure."
