Starting a new week with happy thoughts from my life to yours.
1. Surprise Gifts
I went out for lunch and admired the waitress’ shirt. I asked if they were for sale. She brought several over and I selected one. When it was time to pay she said she got the shirt for me. Cool! 😎
2. Vow
“Vow: I name the most beautiful truths about everyone I meet. I extol and congratulate. Cherish and cultivate. Quicken and animate.” ~ Rob Brezsny
If you don’t know about Rob, you should check out his page. He always has something that encourages me.
3. Dreams
By dreams I mean both sleeping and waking dreams. Good stuff. Some of my most amazing experiences occurred in my sleeping life. Some of my most amazing experiences occurred as a result of dreams in my waking life.
“Once upon a time, Chuang Tzu dreamed that he was a butterfly, flying about enjoying itself. It did not know that it was Chuang Chou. Suddenly he awoke, and veritably was Chuang Chou again. He did not know whether it was Chuang Chou dreaming that he was a butterfly, or whether it was the butterfly dreaming that it was Chuang Chou. Between Chuang Chou and the butterfly there must be some distinction. This is a case of what is called the transformation of things.”
Share the joy. If you want to, tell us something that made you happy this week.

The first and second points are good reminders of how to live, if one really wishes to surpass the cold cordiality that is embedded in so much of life. I love the third point, as well. Butterflies surely dream.

Cold cordiality is a great way to put it.
