Would You Like Extra Ketchup with That?

There is no value in life except what you choose to place upon it, and no happiness in any place except what you bring to it yourself. - Thoreau

the other day at the mcdonalds drive-thru, trying to flip a frown upside down

lowered the car window and asked for a "happy life"

and told them i had a coupon for a deal

they must have thought i said, "happy meal"

got to the pick-up window and was handed questionable meat, stale fries and a plastic toy in a colorful box

what else would you expect from a hamburglar and a clown

Author's Note

"Happiness is like a butterfly, the more you chase it, the more it will evade you, but if you notice the other things around you, it will gently come and sit on your shoulder." - Thoreau
