What Did You Like Best?
In the opening scene of the movie “City of
Angels,” Nicholas Cage as the angel Seth asks the little girl he’s escorting to the afterlife what she liked best.
“Pajamas,” she replies.
I only stopped a second to answer that question for myself.
Cats, of course.
But wait...what about chocolate, and zinnias? What about little girls giggling, and little boys practicing karate kicks?
Fresh sheets on your bed? Meeting a new friend?
What about that new-car smell, and the endless possibilities of a new home? Starting a new book-—and finishing it?
And birthdays? And babies?
What do you like best?

The smell of rain as it just starts to fall.
Oh, wow. Tough one.
Hibiscus, maybe. Or dawn.
Of course, I could go with pajamas ;)
