Three Questions, December 14, 2024

The most worth-while thing is to try to put happiness into the lives of others. ~ Robert Baden-Powell

You can find the background to The Three Questions in my recent post about it. I’ll be answering the questions each day for the next year and putting this experience into a book. Here we go!

What was the most beautiful thing I experienced today?

I was watching the University of Tennessee basketball team, I follow them. They are currently ranked number one in the country and were playing against Illinois in Illinois. It was a wild game, extremely close and with just a few seconds left a player got the ball, dribbled the length of the court, went up for a lay up, switched ball hands in mid-air and banked in a game winning lay up for a one point victory with no time left on the clock. It was an absolutely beautiful play.

What did I learn today?

Today I learned a bit about Parkinson’s Disease symptoms. A family member has the disease and is starting to deal with some things, so I thought it was time to start getting a bit more knowledgeable about symptoms and disease progression.

What made me happy today?

What made me happy today was finishing up some of my Christmas shopping For my littlest niece and nephews I’m determined every year to make sure they get their presents before Christmas morning. This means getting presents from California to New York in time for Christmas. This year, with everything going on around my heart condition I’ve been really behind. So tonight I’ll be wrapping and boxing to ship out tomorrow.
