Joy

1. Waking up to this thought - today is going to be different.

2. Visiting your local farmer’s markets and picking up an extra treat for someone in your street who needs a friend right now.

3. Finding joy in the wisdom of others.

4. Finding a quiet beach, whatever the season might be, taking off your shoes and feeling the grind of sand between your toes.

5. Going to a suburb you haven’t been to for a very long time, parking yourself in a local cafe and watching the daily life as it dances past your eyes.

6. Finding one reason a day to be thankful.

7. Buying a store gift voucher and leaving it anonymously under the wiper of a complete stranger’s car.

8. Affording a single lesson in some skill you once had and remembering when there seemed to be more time for everything you planned to do.

9. Polishing a pair of leather shoes while listening to the morning sounds coming from nature.
