In response to last week’s
imponderable question, “Do you have a spiritual goal?, my podcast friend Jason shard,
“I used to say, ‘Inner Serenity’, and being there became boring.”
My writing and sailing friend Rich
advised, “To follow the golden rule, it keeps the karma is a bitch rule from
being invoked.”
My dad’s beach buddy Bob wished,
“At this point in my life, I believe I have paid my dues and am ready to
receive the dividends.”
My equestrian friend Royce asked,
“Is this a metaphysical question or a soccer one?” and my temple friend Richard
replied, “If a player from the New Jersey Devils hockey team scores, would that
be considered a spiritual goal? Or if a pitcher for the Los Angeles
Angels baseball team says he hopes to win 20 games this season, would that be a
spiritual goal?” Richard continued, “My
spiritual goal is that the ghosts of Roberto Clemente and Willie Stargell
return to the baseball team of my youth, the Pittsburgh Pirates, and return
them to respectability.”
My cycling friend Ted replied, “I
don't know if I personally have one, but I think you find one on G-d's hockey
team; or would that be spiritual Goalie?”
Please send me your thoughts about this week's "things that
make you go 'Hmmm' ":
Live well...laugh often and
heartily.... have a good week and never regret anything that made you smile!

This Friday is one of my favorite holidays (and sailing friend
Cindy’s birthday). Here’s to hoping
General Beauregard
Lee forecasts favorable weather for the South.
FYI: General Lee has moved from
his longtime home at Yellow River Game Ranch, which closed Dec, 2017. General Lee is now at Dauset Trails Nature
Center in Butts County, which is about an hour south of mid-town Atlanta. http://www.dausettrails.com
looks like a nice place for
seeing wildlife, hiking and mountain biking with free parking/free admission.
Thanks to Demetri Martin, Steven
Wright and George Carlin for the inspiration for Hmmm. I invite you
to call or email me to catch up.
