Hoard Moments Of Happiness

By Cynthia Sax on May 3, 2025

(This is a stock photo of a hound dog. The hound dog in our neighborhood has a LOT of gray on his cute little face. And many more wrinkles.)

The world is a tire fire. Every dang day, we wake to something else going wrong (often done deliberately by the rich and powerful). People, animals, insects, plants, the planet are suffering.

It feels…bad to be happy.

But moments of happiness are more important than ever right now. Those precious slivers of joy feed our souls. They strengthen us.

They lead to hope. Without hope, our situations become…well…hopeless.

And hope is essential for change, for making the world a better place, for more happiness.

So retreat into a beloved romance novel and find happiness along with those characters. Smile when the elderly hound dog in the neighborhood howls, defending his human against a fallen tree branch. Laugh at VERY bad jokes. Revel in a warm hug.

Embrace joy. And refill your soul!
