Chances Are

On rare occasions life throws you a sunshine- say, finding a last cigarette stick buried deep in the crumpled, seemingly empty foil pack in time for the nothing to do; or finding a cab on Monday morning rush hour as fat raindrops start coming down- take my advice: take it, light it, and happily roll along. Don’t intellectualize. Don’t overanalyze. Don’t, for heavens sake, spiritualize. Just say your big thanks and rock and roll. Because many at times a magical moment stops short when you finally recognize it. Cosmic chances could have lasted longer if only the players simply enjoyed and ended the drama.
