I totally had to look up the lyrics to that song. :/
For the past couple of weeks, I've been running into my uncle, Bap, at work. My Bap is one of the gardeners at Kaiser who has been there since the beginning. See the beautiful flowers, freshly cut grass, and vegetable boxes around Kaiser? Yep, he did it! Remember the little bear made of green plants, who was swinging on a swing at the old Kiely Kaiser? Yep, he did it!
I told my brother that I've been seeing Bap at work and we both think that HE HAS THE COOLEST JOB EVER. In terms of the "ideal" job people seek for most of their lives-the desire to find a career that you actually enjoy-man, Bap gots that! Cousins, if you think about it, when Bap goes to work, he gardens. And when he's not at work? He gardens! That's his "thing" and clearly enjoys it. Bap does what he does everyday AND gets paid for it. Isn't that awesome?!
ANNND let me just add that other than maintaining Kaiser's natural green environment, Bap also goes around to each David household and makes sure everything is A-OK...yard wise. There's not a single dull David household in Santa Clara. From vegetable gardens to lemon/persimmon trees to plants in the shape of a big bear, Santa Clause, and a reindeer or bunny (depending on the season), our houses never looked untamed (like the house next door in which the lawn looks like a freakin' jungle!)
How cool is that?!
I need to continue my steps now. Have a wonderful week! Don't forget your allergy medicine, bring an umbrella tomorrow, and sleep early-it's Monday tomorrow.
