Simplicity of Joy

Happiness resides with the unmuddied clarity of a peaceful mind, in words that flow from the mouth like ripe fruit, each syllable, sincere and bright. It’s a potter’s steady hands, without urgency, without an urge, you are shaped like pliable clay, just a calm rhythm of mind, word and fingertip in tandem, soft and rhythmic, as if they’d been joined for a lifetime.
