9/14/09 - Joy is Lunch Recess!!

I was a kid who liked school. I enjoyed learning new things and reading books. In fact, my sister will tell you that I often made her play "school" on the weekends and during our summer break. I would insist on being the teacher and assign her homework. I don't know how she put up with me. :)

All of that in consideration, you know what I miss most about elementary school? Cruising with my friends during recess and lunch break. Those were the best times and I miss them. Being an adult can really suck, since those periodic breaks seem to no longer be necessary or even valued in the corporate world. That's why today was so special. I got to have a nice lunch break with my friend Wisa. We got to talk story, share hopes and dreams, and eat Dole Whip. Best of all, we just hung out and took a break from the day, just like when we were six.

Joy is taking the time to just relax.
