According to Buddha
Let us teach real joy to men. Many have unlearned it. Life, though full of woe, holds also sources of happiness and joy, unknown to most. Let us teach people to seek and to find real joy within themselves and to rejoice with the joy of others. Let us teach them to unfold their joy to ever sublimer heights!
calling on blue skies
don’t take them away, boys
don’t take them away
cause i’ll never stop

I am particularly bemused by the Hell’s Angel (or some equivalent) on the happy motorbike, 2nd from bottom. Maybe he’s just a cuddly old teddy bear after all. More generally, love your point about joy. Joy in simple things… frees us from a whole lot of wanting.
teehee…i imagine…the teddy bear 😀 sending you joy for a fun walk Penny! Look forward to seeing it.
how cool is that!
it was cool…i also liked the dog…:-D
So colorful and fun, Hedy. Born to Be Wild! Cheers!

There is much yellow in the trees here with autumn. I need to get out with my camera this weekend and capture some of it. Cheers!

My philosophy is the same, a favourite quote to friends is just “be on the mountain” I’m sure you’ll understand.
