The simple things in life

As I prepared a side dish for dinner tonight (really ended up being the main one), I was reminded of the simple things in life. This may sound silly, but it's true. I made a fruit salad. Now, when we make a fruit salad, we always add something; a dressing, a little cool whip, some yogurt, all of the above. I left it plain. Simple tonight was oh so good. I wonder what it would be like if we quit trying to make everything just a little bit more. O.k., I'm not very good at expressing the philosophical, but the salad was great!
