Sunday Quote: Give in to joy

If you suddenly and unexpectedly feel joy, don’t hesitate. Give in to it. ….

Whatever it is, don’t be afraid of its plenty.

Joy is not made to be a crumb.

Thanks for sharing, Karl. This is how I feel whenever I have ice cream.

Nice one Terry, hard to have just a “crumb” of that, or just one spoon. Need to find joy these days however it presents itself
