Loved this. Cashiers excel at spreading joy. One liked my hat, the other saw my head of elephant garlic and told me how she makes her chili.

I had the joy of seeing the same little songbird perched on the house across the street recently a few mornings in a row, chatting away to friends down the block. Lovely letter, thanks for spreading a little joy today!

Joy is publishing a masterplan for more joy in the world on a day that's tucked into the folds of our calendars and is know to tease a giggle from even the most stoic person when it delights us with its appearance.
