Delight is an amazing word. What do you delight in? Delighting in someone brings you to that "happy place". I like to take notice of the super fine qualities of the people around me.
While shopping I noticed the "deli associate" was grumpy, so I asked him how he did in the recent storms we had. He said he lost his trailer home and had to move in with his sister, Now I understand his demeanor and am glad I took the time and interest in him.
Recently created a lemon meringue pie for my husband's birthday. Lemon meringue pie is a work of art, a sculpture, that can be enjoyed,with all the senses standing up to take notice. It's a delicate delight, here for a day then gone. Some of the people I meet will be with me for an shorter time than that pie. I want to stand up and take notice.
