"When you wake up in the morning, Pooh,'said Piglet at last,'what's the first thing you say to yourself?"
"What's for breakfast?' said Pooh. "What do you say Piglet?"
"I say, I wonder what's going to happen exciting today?"said Piglet.
"Pooh nodded thoughtfully. "It's the same thing." he said."
A.A. Milne, Winnie the Pooh (1926)
I strive to find excitement in daily events, in mundane tasks. Some days things are easy to appreciate, the morning cup of coffee, the hot shower. Other days, I just can't seem to get out of my own head. Interestingly, my dogs have no trouble finding excitement in their daily events.
Perhaps I don't need to run across the lawn, yelling at people walking past. But it could be fun.
