Tonight I ate three bowls of an absolutely delicious garlic potato soup. And now I have heartburn. You could say, “Well silly Johnny, of course you do – that much garlic would give anyone heartburn, you shouldn’t have eaten it.”
And to that I say: Bah! Bah, I say!
If you’d told me at the first bite that I would suffer this discomfort, I’d have said, fie! Bring it on! I choose life! Life, again and again. I want the spectacle and smorgasbord that life has to offer. May I never run from heartburn, for it shows I have a heart!
