Offline card payments – A 2,500-year-old statue in pristine shape – Cabbage shipments and so much more. The world doesn’t stand still, which is good.

I am so impressed by the ‘rest of the world’. This is what I found newsworthy today:

I am under the weather. Our yard is flooded. It has been a crazy summer. The dogs enjoy playing in the mud and reward me with muddy pawprints. I try to cheer myself up because I have the tendency to feel sorry for myself when I have a simple cold. I don’t like feeling so blah.

Not sure if the succulent plant on my kitchen window will still give me much joy from now on. Sometimes I forget: everything has a price.

How much more interesting this world becomes when you ignore the front pages of magazines and newspapers. It’s almost like the ‘real life’ stays hidden behind all the sensationalism.

How can we not hear about this in our regular news every day? What am I not getting?

Remarkable things happen every day, but most of the time.
