Sharing Joy
Two birds on a wire sat happy as can be
Two birds on a wire soon became three
Then, four, five and six joined in on the fun
Perched on high, they could see everyone
Six invited seven, who then invited eight
Nine and ten followed, "Oh! Isn't this great!"
Their voices united in sweet harmony
As they sang of the joy in life there could be
Fly freely fly far, ride the winds and perceive
Happiness lies within you
If you only believe!
In the introduction of “A Joyful Life” and in the “About” section of this website, writerroberta.com, I share my particular journey to joy. But, it is because of the generosity of a few rare birds who so lovingly shared their stories with me that I have been able to share mine with you. Having done so, I hope to encourage you to share your story, impart your perspective, and express your thoughts about life and the joy to be had in living it.
What most brings you joy? Is it...
Spending time in the company of others?
Taking quiet walks in the woods?
Driving your car to points unknown?
Found on the face of your inquisitive child?
Training for a marathon you thought you could never run?
I want to...
Know everything!
Hear all that you are willing to share with me.
Understand how you optimistically overcome your obstacles.
Know where you turn to for comfort.
Discover who has influenced your belief system and attitude.
Understand where your source of joy and contentment comes from.
And finally, I want to remember you and thank you for having shared your story!
Warm regards,
Roberta
