Happiness + Joy

Chika Gujarathi

I was up till 2:00am last night watching Ryan Gosling in The Gray Man. Hanging out alone in the house after everyone had gone to bed, watching something I probably couldn’t watch with the kids around, just lounging with no one fighting for the blanket, all of this made me very happy. So did Ryan Gosling.

I recently purchased a very pretty crystal butter dish from a thrift store for – I can’t remember exactly – $ 3 or $4.

Here is how Merriam-Webster defines Happiness and Joy.

Watching Ryan Gosling was definitely a pleasurable and satisfying experience. The butter dish is definitely a source and cause of delight for an otherwise mundane task of buttering a toast.

So tell me, what is bringing you happiness and joy today?
