MA,
I like that statement: Every day is a bonus! It truly is! Somewhere in the Bible I believe it says, "Without a vision the people parish." So I guess we need goals and things to strive for. I like to treat myself with little side pleasures, ice cream, lunch at some restaurant, or a brief shopping excursion. A cup of white tea is an added pleasure! Life is precious! Absorb the sunshine; soak up the view; be heartened by smiles; and smile at everybody you meet. Life is beautiful. "Praise the Lord!"
