But It's Raining!

As Anne and I boarded our flight from Vancouver to return home to Los Angeles, we heard people yet again complain that today, June 30th is a rainy day, rather than a day bathed in sunshine as they would have wished.

Once on board, someone complained the plane was too small ( a jet that seats 66 passengers).

In response to those who were bothered by the rain, I smiled and discussed how beautiful a city Vancouver is and the many interesting people there are to meet there.

f I had been more direct, I could have referenced the many people who from illness or physical incapacitation cannot go outdoors most days, rain or shine and would give almost anything for a pain free day. Rain would not be among their problems.

As for the person who complained about the plane being too small, my guess is she would gladly fly on a luxurious private corporate jet, a jet smaller than this one.

Life will always have problems for that is its nature. But life can also be a beautiful experience if we seek happiness and adventure and allow ourselves to enjoy it, even if it is just one joyful moment at a time.
