Joy Factor

A L O H A From Honolulu!

Full Moon by Cynthia Tucker Naihe

Who has seen the rising
moon break out of
the clouds at midnight
has been present
like an archangel at
the creation of light
and of the world.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
(1803–1882)





If, instead of a gem, or even a flower, we should cast the gift of a loving thought into the heart of a friend, that would be giving as the angels give George MacDonald 



All the windows of my heart
I open to the day.     
 John Greenleaf Whittier






Joy is one of the seven
factors of enlightenment.
Buddhist teachings





Happiness, not in another place but this place, not for another hour, but this hour. Walt Whitman

This post made me very, very happy. From the full moon to the rainbow to the glorious quotes to Pixie sniffing the flowers you brought in from your morning walk and wondering WHY you never bring her catnip. She lives in hope of having more joy from the magic grass for felines. Don't disappoint her tomorrow, if you love her.

Happy Mid-Autumn Festival. Don't forget to share a moon cake with the ones you love.
