It is a hot Sunday in Seagrove Beach and this is only May. The parking lot here in condo land is full. Children are screaming. The living is not easy and the cotton is not high.
So, the remedy is to be chilling like cat Vivo pictured on the table. Enjoy a lunch of fresh tomato slices and tuna salad . . . And do not think about how those fish were caught.
Yes, even as I try to erase concern and have a thoughtless Sunday, my lunch poses an ethical challenge.
Sigh.
And the advice of Marcus Aurelius is in my head too:
So we need to hurry.
Not just because we move daily closer to death but also because our understanding - our grasp of the world - May be gone before we get there.
Cheery thoughts, no?
Love,
J
