It has been days (or has it been years) since I have enjoyed a sneeze free day. The Gracious Mistress of the Parsonage told me it is simply that time of the year and I should learn to deal with it. "After all," she opined, "you're not

a friend of mine. It is hard to hide your condition when all you are 
doing is sneezing and sniffling. He understood, of course, and then 
offered me his expert medical advice. 

"I have found the perfect cure for your condition." 

You would think by this time I would have learned my lesson, but I was
feeling so down I was grasping at straws. 

"When I get what you have I always take a laxative regimen." 

Had I been in my right mind and had my mind been clear I would have
considered this as stupid advice. However, being in the condition I was 
in it somehow it sounded plausible. 

"This laxative regimen," he explained, "flushes all the poison
contributing to your condition out of your system." 

Either, my friend had never tried the remedy himself or, he had forgot
to warn me about a very serious side effect. One sneeze can trigger a 
flush. Don't ask me how I know. 

In the midst of all of this nonsense, my bleary, teary eyes rested on an
old familiar friend. It is found in Psalms 103:1 (KJV), "Bless the 
LORD, O my soul: and all that is within me, bless his holy name.” 

I discovered one good thing about sneezing in public. People are always
kind enough to say, "God bless you." 

Ah, it's a wonderful world...Aaaah Chooo! 

"God bless you." 

Thank you.
