Joy

 


This photo brought me such joy yesterday. It is a picture of my mom and sister making a puzzle. Mom sleeps a lot these days. Her advanced age and several conditions make the extra sleep necessary. Mom also doesn't enjoy many of the activities she used to enjoy, so when I saw this picture of my mom engaged in an activity, and learned later of her joy with this puzzle making and visit, it brought me joy.

The picture also makes me think more about what we can do to bring ourselves and others joy. 


What truly brings us joy? And what truly brings those we love joy? Do we make time for those activities in our lives? I'll be thinking about this today.
