we usually find that the simplest things 
give off the greatest glow of happiness.”

Quotography: Darkness

Photo snapped upon arrival
at church.  Torrential rain
accompanied by lightning
knocked out the power.
The traffic lights were out;
thankfully, people treated the intersections
like 4-way stop signs.

Upon entering church,
I found that we had no lights there either.

"It is better to light one candle
than to curse the darkness."
~Chinese proverb~

The Chinese proverb was used as
a motto by Father James Keller
founder of The Christophers.

through a door
you didn't know you'd left open."

Pinwheels are inexpensive sources
of things that make me smile!

picture happiness?
