A few mornings ago at around six, I drove to McDonalds to read the paper and drink fifty-cent senior coffee. My friend David was there, and as we sat and discussed issues that seniors discuss, Michelle, the chatty clerk who works the cash register, made the refill rounds and kept our cups full. As we both stood up to leave, Michelle brought us each a covered cup of coffee to take home.
I enjoy being there.
Shams and delusions are esteemed for soundest truth, while reality is fabulous. If men would steadily observe realities only, and not allow themselves to be deluded, life, to compare it with such things as we know, would be a fairy tale and the Arabian Nights’ Entertainments. --Henry Thoreau
