One good thing

Following a day of distractions and peace, a cloud found its way to me. I lay on top of my made, empty bed, and sent a text message to my friend in California.

Tell me one good thing, I wrote, and she replied, The scent of eucalyptus trees.

And the scent of eucalyptus trees was delivered to me by my memory, and it filled the room. So I sent the same text to another friend, and then to many friends, and here are some of the responses I received:

You are beautiful

Yankees won today

I'm going to Miami on Friday!

You are funny and smart

I got a 91 on my Human Sexuality test!
Annie

It is a beautiful evening

I love you
Moon is like a silver penny
