I took this picture the other night on an evening stroll with Babe and it reminded me of one of Albus Dumbledore's most famous quotes. It may not be the very best of pictures, it may be grainy and dim, but that's kind of how it works isn't it? Happiness doesn't always come wrapped up in the prettiest package or riding a gleaming white horse. It comes in the smallest moments, that build upon each other, until they shine with a brightness, that even the darkest of nights can't snuff out.
So here's to happiness and Dumbledore and all the hearts that still believe in the magic of a story! Oh, and Harry Potter! Illustrated!! People, have you heard?! There is a new illustrated edition of The Sorcerer's Stone! I don't have it yet, but my friend does and she brought it by for me to see. Y'all, it is glorious and wonderful and one of those little happiness things! We are really working hard to save money this month or it would already be in my hot little hand, but it is on my Christmas list for sure. Dear Santa, hint, hint...
Great quote... and, the illustrated edition of Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone... I've heard of that! I'm glad you think it's worth buying. It would make a great Christmas gift.
ReplyDeleteGreat quote and great reminder. It seems that often are so busy pursuing happiness that they never stop to just enjoy the moment. More often than not, there are opportunities for gratitude and happiness right before us.
