The Sunday Times published its latest Rich List a couple of weeks ago, and if like me you are fed up, with the vacuous celebrity culture that dominates everything in this country and the way the media and the rich and famous take advantage of the rest of us, you probably need encouragement to get you through the dark days and the long weekends.
"Most of us miss out on life's big prizes. The Pulitzer. The Nobel. Oscars. Tonys. Emmys. But we're all eligible for life's small pleasures. A pat on the back. A kiss behind the ear. A four-pound bass. A full moon. An empty parking space. A crackling fire. A great meal. A glorious sunset. Hot soup. Cold beer. Don't fret about copping life's grand awards. Enjoy its tiny delights. There are plenty for all of us."
United Technologies Corporation slogan
So when the going gets tough, join the club.... send a card to a friend, send flowers to the special people in your life, kiss someone special, cuddle your children and grandchildren, sit out and watch the stars, park the car and watch the sunset, enjoy great coffee, drink soup and cold beer, eat great bread... smile, laugh and cry when things matter and simply remember that you are a unique, special and extraordinary human being and whatever you do, don't feel that you are on your own and don't let them get you down!
