A Daily Delights Blog

This is not an original idea. Dona did it a year or two ago, midst pandemic, when delights were important! She was inspired by Ross Gay’s The Book of Delights, and her blog was a delight to read. Recently, another blogging friend, Jess, raved about the same book, and the inspiration to do something similar took hold. I won’t post every day, but I hope to reference a delight for day. And so I intend posting 365 delights over the next year, probably more, as so often a day that yields one delight yields many more.

I think it is important to remember the good things in our lives, as much as the sad or bad things that are happening to us or around us in this crazy world. The challenge will be the days that don’t seem to yield any delights, but there’s always at least one thing to feel grateful for. I suspect on lazy days, it might be a book, a movie, or – more than likely – food! I’ll try to be brief, and might just include photos when it is appropriate. A lesson in restraint and gratitude. Let’s see if I can do it!
