The Way I See It

Everyone should have the opportunity to ride in a private jet. And everyone should drive the autobahn in Germany at least once. Nobody should die without the experience of eating homemade fresh food cooked by the hands of a southern woman in her own kitchen.

Everybody should go to a college football game at Tiger Stadium in Baton Rouge. And while you're in Southern Louisiana, show yourself friendly to a large group of folks and tag along to a crawfish boil.

Love all people blessed with age. They've been places you may not know about and seen things you probably wouldn't want to see. Love the little children, too. They're loud and obnoxious but they teach us the little things that prepare us for a lengthy life.

No one should underestimate the power of chicken. Or the power of Jesus. Everyone should have a special dinner in their honor while they're still alive. Everyone should have the opportunity to spend money freely at an electronics store for at least an hour. Everybody should pull up all the way to the white line at traffic lights.

Everyone should experience high definition sight and sound in the comfort of their own home. Everyone should be loved by someone they want to be loved by. Nobody should leave this earth without knowing how relaxing it is to consume a hot beverage while gazing out a large window at skiers skiing down a snow covered mountain.

Everyone should try my mama's greens. Everybody should have an iPod. Everybody should see video of themselves when they're not at their best so they won't be so hard on everybody else. Everybody should give money away every chance they get. More people should smile more.

The way I see it, everybody is rich in one way or another. Share your wealth with the world.
