Greatest compliment

"Joy seems to me a step beyond happiness -- happiness is a sort of atmosphere you can live in sometimes, when you're lucky. Joy is a light that fills you with hope and faith and love." Adela Rogers St. Johns

The greatest compliment I remember receiving in my life was when I was 25. A friend who knew me in highschool, but got to know me better years later, after I had cancer the first time at 23, said this:

"I remember you always being happy, but now I see you are full of Joy."

Thank-you Brigetta Beer for this wonderful memory!

I see happiness as something you can choose to have, where as Joyful is something you are.

Joyfully Yours,

Feather
