Bloganuary: What brings you joy in life?
The first things that popped into my head were:
- Talking with my kids
- Writing
- Curling up with a good book and some hot peppermint tea at the end of the day
That being said, I wonder if those things simply bring me deep contentment. These aren’t necessarily significant things, after all. They don’t change the world. But maybe that’s okay. When I manage all three of those things on any given day, I consider that to be a stellar day.
So I’m going to take those small things and hold them close.
They are comfort and joy.
They are enough.
The kind of hyped of “joy” regaled in media doesn’t mean much to me. What you’ve described here sounds like a much deeper wellspring of happiness. And yes, comfort and joy.
