“Happy. Just in my swim shorts, barefooted, wild-haired, in the red fire dark, singing, swigging wine, spitting, jumping, running—that's the way to live. All alone and free in the soft sands of the beach by the sigh of the sea out there, with the Ma-Wink fallopian virgin warm stars reflecting on the outer channel fluid belly waters. And if your cans are redhot and you can't hold them in your hands, just use good old railroad gloves, that's all.”

This is my true religion: arbitrary moments of of nearly painful happiness for a life I feel privileged to lead.”

― Elizabeth Berg, The Art of Mending

“The present moment is filled with joy and happiness. If you are attentive, you will see it. (21)”
