what a wonderful world this would be.

Saturday Morning Spider Mums

I know global warming is bad. I know that. But, boy-oh-boy, sixty-degrees in March sure is something. I told the bus driver "this weather makes me feel like singing!". And, the elderly gentleman sitting behind me replied "let's hear it!"  I was so put on the spot that I could only hum a few la-de-das before I sat down.

If I could go back and redo it - despite being shy and totally tone deaf - I would have sang the Sam Cooke song I was humming to myself while I waited at the stop

It's a song about not knowing all sorts of complicated things : history, biology, science books, french (... the adverse affects of global warming?) But how having one person can make the most complicated thing - happiness - seem simple. 

I hope your world is wonderful this weekend.

  1. I totally had the same thing happen to me last year. I didn't get much further than a bit of humming as well. Now I'll be better prepared.

    1. Bethany,
      isn't it funny the way things happen like that? this song seems to pop up in my life over and over again. a true soul song.

  3. there's no way i would've been able to come up with something on the spot like that! i commend you for being able to a least hum something. the most he would've gotten out of me probably would have been a nervous laugh.
