Happiness Was Born A Twin "2"
I bid you greetings on this most beautiful of days!
Some of you might remember this post from a long time ago and a place far far away. So okay, this is a repeat of my very first blog. It's because I've been asked by a number of people to start blogging once again. I humbly acquiesce.
"Big, medium-bodied, with a roasty sweetness and elegant finish. No, that's not pillow talk from my wife, it's the description of the coffee I'm currently drinking. Seattle's Best Breakfast Blend. Aaaahhh, there's nothing like a hot, fresh cup of coffee, fire in the fireplace, looking out the picture window at the snow covered landscape, and sharing thoughts with some friends. So here goes...
Schopenhaner said it, "Happiness was born a twin." And nothing is quite so beautiful as when you share it with someone else.
That I think is the reason for this blog.
The sharing of various aspects of "happiness" in random musings all while guzzling cups of coffee from my favorite "coffee-head" mug. And thus the name of the blog - Get it? As in "I've Bean There Too!
Coffee is the curious thing don't you think? What other beverage have so many gathered around, shared, discussed, argued over, experimented with, added to, charged so much for, and created so many careers.
Personally, I'm a traditionalist. I like my coffee (depending on the bean), medium to strong and black. No sugar, no creamer, no flavor. And oh no! I'm not a coffee bigot. So if you're a diluter or additionalist, I may not understand you, but I will accept and forgive you.
In coming blogs, I'll be sharing and commenting on some of my favorite sayings and quotes all with a friendly cup of coffee at my side. Some sayings and/or musings may be spiritual, some not, but feel free to add your own thoughts, comments, and or opinions. Try to keep in mind however the overriding theme; "Happiness was born a twin," and the fact it's a beautiful thing when sharing that happiness.
So for today, whatever that thing is that causes happiness to well-up within you, remember it's never really fully blossomed until you share it with someone.
Oh man! After reading this, I think I'm turning into a woman! Ahhhh!
I'm signing off for now - I need to head for the shooting range and fire off a hundred rounds with the SKS and 44 Mag.
