Ahh, the hell with ‘em, you know?
I’ve been down there digging with a shovel, with a rake, with a shovel, rake, a rifle on my back AND my new snowshoes on-—as near as I can tell they are sleeping with the sea salt!
Five hundred bucks is a heckuva bunch of money to me, I’m not pretending otherwise. That kind of stupidity-—being careless-—can just eat me up.
But they are a good. A possession. Material object. This morning I was out there with the big shoes on, hiking through the trackless hills and long draws, rising sun gleaming off the snow-covered pine trees, and you couldn’t have asked for a sweeter, more peaceful, more beautiful scene to be a part of.
Even if the glare did hurt my eyes...HA!
I hear you. You’ve got the right attitude. Material things mean nothing compared to our health and the health of our loved ones. One can always buy another pair of sunglasses-well, cheap ones, anyway. :)
I hear that. Sometimes I sit here and glance up and am graced with the loveliest pink and gold sunsets. And in the morning I see the sun glittering through tree limbs as it rises. It sparkles off the snow on the tree branches. Some people never see the beauty because they don't look.
