A day of ordinary miracles

In the world of glurge, there's probably nothing new under the sun. We may have covered this one on the old board, but I can't remember for sure, so chow it if necessary. Some of it seems familiar, anyway, but that could be that glurgers aren't exactly original folk as a whole. I think the tacked-on bit at the end about fogetting friends might be new.

It came with animated gifs of snowmen and reindeer. No puppies, though.

Today...I wish you a day of ordinary miracles-

A fresh pot of coffee you didn't have to make yourself.

An unexpected phone call from an old friend.

Green stoplights on your way to work or shop.

I wish you a day of little things to rejoice in...

The fastest line at the grocery store.

A good sing along song on the radio.

Your keys right where you look.

I wish you a day of happiness and perfection-little bite-size pieces of perfection that give you the funny feeling that the Lord is smiling on you, holding you so gently because you are someone special and rare.

I wish You a day of Peace, Happiness and Joy.

They say it takes a minute to find a special person, an hour to appreciate them, a day to love them, but then an entire life to forget them.

Send this phrase to the people you'll never forget .
It's a short message to let them know that you'll never forget them.

If you don't send it to anyone, it means you're in too much of a hurry and that you've probably forgotten your friends.

I can't help but wonder if someone tacked on the "or shop" phrase to make it applicable to stereotypical women as well as stereotypical men.

Well if you had sent me this thing yesterday when you first got it, I would have found my keys faster, not had to wait so long in the line at the grocery store, and I wouldn't have been forced to run that red light and get stopped by the cops. No wonder I'm in such a hurry!

If all of us want fresh coffee, but none of us want to make it, how is it going to come to be?
