Three Questions, December 15, 2024

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 encountered today?

I was running errands and after dinner and there was a bright full moon in the sky poking through a hole in fluffy rows of clouds. It bathed the the national veteran’s cemetery in a really eerily beautiful blue light.

What did I learn today?

It’s a happy but small thing, I learned today that a few other teams lost in addition to my favorite team, the Pittsburgh Steelers, but because the other teams lost the Steelers have clinched a spot in the playoffs.

What made me happy today?

What made me happy today was getting the majority of my Christmas shopping finished, getting gifts boxed and bagged and ready for shipping and distribution tomorrow.
