In a nod to the subtitle of my old (and somewhat short-lived) blog, I'm using the above title to denote the fact that every once in a while, something good does happen on this troubled little planet of ours.
Take for example that yesterday my good friends Shelton and Carmalita Johnson became the proud parents of Miles Shelton Johnson, who apparently came out eyes wide open and didn't cry for a second. I'm telling you, this is one brave kid. If I were being born into this world all over again, I'd do the same thing I did the first time... put it off as long as I could.
I think this kid knows something. He's feeling good about things for some unknown reason. Maybe we've got ourselves a future President on our hands? Who knows. What I do know is that I think I'd like to learn from this kid in his one day of life on this planet. I want to be fearless like him and face the changes of this world with eyes wide open.
Good luck Miles, I'm right behind you little guy.

inspired i am. i'll keep my eyes open as long as i can look at you (beautiful face, heart and brain).
Wow! See, I say one positive thing, and now I have a fan. Guess I'l just start writing about Rainbow Bright and Hypercolor t-shirts!
On second thought, maybe I'll just rant about Ollie North and Reaganomics. Kinda the same, right?
yes, a little brightness thrown in there everyonce and awhile keeps the negative things happening in the world in a bit better perspective...
thank ye
Well that one made me cry. Welcome little person! You are so very brave. And Finx, I think if you get to do it all over you should do it the same - look how you turned out!
Guess Who
Yes my son Miles changed my life for the better. No more late nights with my patners in crime, or peaceful nights. I sign my paychecks over to him every two weeks. The only new clothes I get are from thirft stores. I can tell him a bad joke and he still laughs. He may be only 5 months, but he's already taught me things I would have never thought of.
