I pulled back my curtains this morning, looked out the window at the early morning autumn sunlight teasing the crimson leaves on the trees while the sparrows sung in harmony, and I thought ‘everything is just great’. I went to the bathroom had an invigorating hot shower, the simplest of pleasures but one of the most divine, and as the steam billowed around me, filling the room with a familiar closeness before it settled on the mirror, creating a film of condensation like icing on a cake, I thought ‘everything is just great’
As I stretched I felt energy and enthusiasm for the day ahead coursing through every vein and muscle fiber, imbibing my soul with vigor and zest that I knew would propel me through the first day of the rest of my life. I dressed myself, settling into a mood of quiet contentment as the soft, warm material kissed my smooth clean skin, generating a sense of well being and safety.
I sat in my car, I around me, proud to be in possession of such a luxurious consumer good that made my life so much easier. I journeyed to my place of work, not once exceeding the speed limit or feeling an ounce of resentment at other motorists. As I pulled into the large car park at work with multiple spaces, the security guard opened the gate and I thought ‘everything is just great’.
I sat at my desk and began serving a broad spectrum of customers from different back grounds, I thought to myself how lucky I was to reside in a place that was so multicultural and accepting of people from differences races, religions and nationalities. I handed out an immediate loan, a series of cards and some effective personal loans, which all roughly translates as prestamos immediatos, tanda and creditos personales. I knew this because I am currently learning Spanish, a hobby I find enriching and self-vindicating.
When I got home, I put my feet up, made myself a delicious meal, and after I’d cleaned the plate I thought ‘well everything is just great’
