Across the sky are gray strips moving in synchronicity. A glance away and then back reveals a brilliant pink layer breathing a joyful color in to the darkened ceiling. It makes the soul leap with its sudden appearance. A glance away and it's gone. The stretches of gray appear as if the pink was never there.
In life we have moments of joy that come unexpected. They light up the present, and soothe the soul. We know they can't last. It's easy to dismiss them. Yet if we avoid looking away in our busyness of life, their impression will sink into our hearts to supply joy when needed. Linger in the joy...

What are some joyful moments that you recall which can still make you smile?

Look for moments of surpring joy today and linger there a while.
