NO COMPLAINTS -- by Steve Nadis
It's true I have, upon occasion, used this space to vent. To rant. And to gripe. Call me a nitpicker but I don't like torture. Nor do I like waging wars for no good reasons and for a lot of bad reasons. But today I'm not going to complain. Despite the state of our country and the state of the world, I do have plenty to be thankful for--a healthy family, both in my immediate family and throughout most of my extended family too. Plus I have a roof over my head, at least for now, and plenty to eat. So on this day, for once, I'm going to put all the carping aside and focus, instead, on all the good things in life--like "beating the rain," watching flying squirrels, and playing volleyball. Who knows? Maybe it will become a habit.
