Best Day Ever
Last weekend was the South Dakota State Fair. I love attending this fair, not that I’m a big fair goer anyways, but I like going to fairs in South Dakota. It seems like SD people don’t forget where they are from or who they are. They know that agriculture is a big part of their lives and drives our economy and it is noticeable when you attend the state fair. It is also a great time to see friends as well as meet new ones. This year at the fair as I was helping with some early morning FFA livestock shows, one of the state officers sees me and shouts, “Mr. Franken, isn’t it the best day ever?” It took me off guard right away until I replied, “Yes it is.” As I think more about this, wouldn’t it be great to always have this positive outlook on life. Wouldn’t we be a much happier society and funner place to live? So I am challenging myself to see life this way.
