Morning Edition

He doesn't care about foreign policy.

He doesn't know what the DOW Jones is.

He doesn't read his horoscope.

He's not concerned about the presidential election or the price of a barrel of oil, or even the 7 day forecast.

The only question that he ponders over breakfast, the only issue worth debate, the news, in his book at least, comes down to this:

"What are we going to do today?"

He his not thinking of lists that must be checked off, chores accomplished, errands that need running. He only wants to know what adventure, joy, and new discoveries are in store for him today.

Bliss.
