Good read by Michael Gates Gill
P26
The other day I made a list of a few of the places where I have found unexpected joy
1) In the surprising satisfaction of working really hard to clean a toilet and making a bathroom sparkle like a new car
2) In the song I happen to overhear that sends me singing out loud as i walk down the block
3) in the warm sun of an early April day that catches me by surprise when I spent sio many months getting used to the cold gray days of winter
4) In the delight of going to bed on a rainy afternoon with a good book
5) in the deep enjoyment of spending time with my children - simple lunches in the city or long walks in the country - as I observe and marvel as they create their own remarkable lives
6) In the feeling of gratitude in waking at the beautiful first light of dawn
7) In the simple act of sharing a smile or a joke as i serve others a good cup of coffee
8) In walking home in the soft blue dusk of summer and seeing a full moon rising in the sky
