The happy things range from the rare times you feel you've written something good, whether it be a sentence, a paragraph or more, to the wonderful feeling that you don't have to rush for that commuting train any more. Caveat: you still have to get up at the same time, only it's not so far to rush to one's office if it's in your home.(less)

“switch, wasn’t it?’ ‘Not really. She’d always painted a lot of her own stuff. She just expanded it sideways into framing. Said she was never going to be a Leonardo, so why not frame them instead? It was something to do after Dad died. She used to spend all her time helping Dad when he was alive, and a lot of the time they were doing car shows here, there and everywhere, either in the UK or somewhere else in Europe.’ ‘She helped him in the classic car business?’ ‘Right. She didn’t want to go back into TV. Too proud. Said she didn’t want to join the ladder downwards as her looks went.”
Amy Myers, Classic in the Barn

“Why do most of us send Christmas cards year after year to people we’d love to see again but probably never will? Time does not permit. We change. The Christmas cards are a sign that the past is still with us and that the future still bears hope. All this in one small gesture — yet some say it is pointless, too expensive. Nonsense.”
