Pure joys

I have had a trying couple of days.  A flux of wonderful and hurtful, but through it all my duaghter has been oblivious and I am glad.  I watch her and think of Christ asking us to be like little children.  The pure joys that they experiance because of things like a train whistle in the distance, showing a favorite stufed toy the ABC's in a book, the spray of a sprinkler, or the magic of bubbles.

If only we adults could let go of our obsessions over money, our vehemence over politics, our judgments in the name of religion, and such.  The world would be a better place.  today I think I'll stop for a nap, drink a glass of coco, color for a while, and look for the pure joy in the day.

Flash Mob Art

I love this new take on "happenings". The mob art gatherings which occurred in the 60's and 70's. I think that they've taken on a whole wonderful level of innocent fun as opposed to "serious" art that has become politically charged and angry. If this is the future of art I'm happily okay with it. Art should be about uplifting the human soul either through childlike fun or through profound beauty. Offense is not a quality of true art; in my opinion.

Here is one of the best Flash Mobs I've seen. Enjoy and let yourself smile. Thanks Jo Ann for the link.
