As I was enjoying the salad with tiny dips of the fork tines into the dressing before spearing a bit of the crisp iceberg or fresh tomatoes, I began to chuckle to myself about the preference of having sauces and dressings and the like served on the side. It made me think about the movie When Harry Met Sally and Sally’s complex way of ordering:

When Harry Met Sally is one of those movies that I can watch anytime it comes on. There is the whole discussion of “can men and women be friends” / “low maintenance vs high maintenance women” as well as the underlying lesson of the movie that the best lasting relationships between men and women are those who have a basis of friendship and simply enjoy each other’s company as friends.      In the final scene of the movie,  Harry tells Sally what he loves about her, which is all about reveling in her imperfections because, in his eyes, that is what makes her perfect.

.

You see, he just likes her. When you get down to it, when it comes to choosing a life mate, isn’t the ability to like someone as much as you love them pretty darned special?

It’s been, overall, a wonderful day. I hope that your day has given you some bright spots as well as
