This morning I drove home after work, tired and a bit unhappy after finding my car frozen from the inside and also realizing I needed to pass by the gas station urgently.
Then I thought, why let that spoil my mood, turned on the car radio, and when I left the still dark valley where my workplace is located, I was greeted by hilltops, fields and forests bathed in beautiful golden winter morning sunlight while Bonnie Tyler was singing Total Eclipse of the Heart.
Later when I had almost reached my home, the next song was interrupted by a warning that on my motorway, about 50km from my place, people were throwing stones from a bridge and I felt chilled to the bones at the thought that in one moment you can feel the sunshine and hear music, and the next second your life can be over because of a few idiots. But I suppose that's always the case, just not always that obvious to us.
So eat the cake, drink the exploding mushroom ale, kiss the sentient creature of your choice, play the game, remember to enjoy the moment.
