Today I went to school wearing only one shoulder pad. I’m not sure what happened to the other one, but even though I discovered the imbalance before I left the house, I left anyway with just a shrug of my uneven shoulders. Why stress over what is merely a sublime reflection of my present state of mind? Everything equals out in time:
- Today, one shoulder pad is missing, but I didn’t spill anything on the front of my shirt.
- I am so overdue for a haircut that I resemble a sheepdog, but I did get my flu shot before faulty refrigerators spoiled the serum.
- My house is filled with half-finished knitting and art projects, but I did finally convert a build up of potential energy into enough kinetic energy to plant the mums that I’ve had since Easter.
- I graduated summa cum laude to get a degree that will probably never earn me a job at my age in this economic environment, but I am going shopping with a favorite friend on Saturday and getting a body massage on Monday.
Who needs that other shoulder pad, anyway? Life is good.
