Here it is, your moment of Zen

For those of you who aren’t obsessive fans of the Daily Show with Jon Stewart, let me explain.  At the end of each of his faux news shows, Jon Stewart features “a moment of zen.”  Typically it’s a funny quote or a ridiculous image from the day’s news.  The point is to send the viewers off with a smile.

Just the other day I was, as usual, frantically scrolling through polls and predictions. My heart was racing to and fro, so I took a break to read an email from my mother.  She forwarded a link to a blog she reads from the Martha’s Vineyard Fiber Farm, which calls itself the “home of the county’s first fiber CSA.”

CSA, if you remember, stands for Community Supported Agriculture.  Monroe Organic Farms CSA provided our family with farm fresh fruits and veggies all summer long.  Martha’s Vineyard Fiber Farm keeps my mother and other members in organic wool.  My mother, in turn, keeps her grandchildren cuddly and warm in handmade sweaters.  It works out pretty well for everyone. Well, everyone except those chilly little goats, I suppose.

In the final days leading up to this historic election, I have a challenge for you.  Relax, it is one that does not include knocking on doors or calls to mysteriously undecided voters.

Nope, here’s my challenge to you: I challenge you to click on this link.  Baby Goats Wearing Sweaters. Go on, click it, and try not to smile.

It’ll only take a second.  Positive results guaranteed.  It’s a crowd pleaser, something for everyone, regardless of the color of your state or the state of your mind.

Go on, click it:  Baby Goats Wearing Sweaters. I promise you won’t be disappointed.
