They say a sorrow shared is a sorrow halved and a joy shared is a joy doubled. While we tend to moan about our lives with our people, we don't necessarily do the same with our joys, do we?
I rediscovered this when I was looking at some comic books and laughing with the kids yesterday. There was a hidden second nature to the original fun- the joy of understanding that a moment was shared. We tend to laugh once more at the joke, and I don't know about you, but giggles are infectious aren't they- like a runaway train.
I've realized this when I write this blog as well. (I've just tripled this one!). I feel a shade of the original joy again when I write. And when I read some of my old ones- it makes me feel good all over again. Unlike photographs, this blog only communicates good times back to me!
I suggest finding a way to share your joy: today and now!

Nice! Ive noticed that over time we stop sharing joys with our loved ones and only share problems. Good to see that your "joy sharing" tab is still on...
Very rightly put.We keep waiting for the big joys in our lives to happen forgetting the small joys that happen everyday..-Dolly
