Well, gee. It's been, what, 24 days since I last blogged. So much for blogging every day!
Ahh well. Onward.
Lately I've been thinking about joy. Not happiness necessarily, but joy. Two Thursdays in a row now I've heard great quotes about joy. Maybe someone's trying to get my attention.
Here they are:
"We must try to contribute joy to the world.
That is true no matter what our problems, our health, our circumstances.
We must try. I didn't always know this, and am happy I lived long
enough to find it out."
- Roger Ebert
“We can complain because rose bushes have thorns, or rejoice because thorn bushes have roses.”
- Abraham Lincoln
Both are timely after a long gloomy week of rain rain rain.
Then again, I haven't worn my coat in a week, and our lawn is greening up. Some random flowers came up in our flower bed, and the day lilies are slowly making their way up too.
Ahh joy!
