Joy...a feeling of pleasure or delight
something causing such a feeling....a source of happiness
One really does not have to look far to find the
sweet simple joys of life...

Hi Koralee~
Your list is awakening all my simple little joys ~ so many of your joys echo my own ♥
For years, there was a sweet white horse that lived in a stable just down the road... Everyone that lives here and all who visited believed that it was this horse's gift to greet everyone to our neighborhood. She would always be found waiting at the fence and looking right at us as we passed by. Her long ivory eyelashes were just amazing.
They moved a couple of years ago and I miss her being there ~
Wishing you more tender moments on the phone as you travel through time and space to be with Molly ♥
What a sweet family you have ~ it's wonderful to be so cared for~
*blessings to you*

Hi sweet Koralee ~
This was just the
message that I needed
to read tonight. It
is so important to
take a gratitude
inventory, DAILY, if
possible : ) Thank
you for the reminder!
Your list conjured
about lovely thoughts.
Hope you had a
wonderful weekend!
xx Suzanne
Such thoughtful words! Indeed, joy can be found in simple everyday things and in contentment. We sometimes search too hard for it and in all the wrong place.
