glee...



Joy; merriment; mirth; entertainment.

Fox TV's new show is all of these. It is coming this fall but if you have an extra 40some minutes handy, you can catch it at Foxtv.com.

I associate glee with high school and choir. I don't remember having one at my high school nor DD. Maybe it is called something else now.Even the word glee sounds like some emotion that can only be experienced after some sort of chemical infusion. It seems too over the top, like those people you meet who are way over the top.

My personal definition of glee looks something like this,
glee
that first step beyond the boundaries of normal emotion.
a magical feeling that overrides logic and sense
the total mindset of something beyond happy that you are capable of imagining.

Yep, that is glee. You never know where it is going to come from or how long it will last. You can understand how drugs might be attractive to many and how just saying no, doesn't work as well as the advertisers lead us to believe after a gleeful experience.

The thing is we have to balance glee with all our other emotions and not try/expect to live there all the time. To savor the glee in our lives, to live in the Moment and not let it take you away. When you do, it can go horribly wrong...

They applied a loan for $6000 to keep their gas station open. They got 6 million. Closed their gas station the same day, moved all the money and took off. They got crazy and made a bad choice. When they are caught and deflated, it will cost them not only their glee but 1000 times more. They tried to make it last forever and now it will cost them everything. It the cost of doing human business. It is messy and tough. It is also fun and rewarding and don't right, imperfectly balanced...
