The other day, I discovered a teachable moment where I explained to a group of four-year-olds how to be happy for someone who has something that you want. I think this is a lesson worth remembering as adults. Our wants are different from that of a four-year-old, but sometimes our behavior isn't so different in how we react to someone else's joy. We don't need to have the thing to have the happiness, and that is the simple truth.
Carpe Diem,
