Find Joy

December 11, 2021 by still a dreamer

I love this set of Christmas mugs that I’ve had for what seems like forever. They’re made in Germany with a beautiful glaze, and each is different. To tell the truth, the one with the Christmas tree has always been my favorite, but this year, I find myself wanting to use this one the most.

Maybe it’s the way the last two years have gone; maybe it’s just because I’m in the midst of a major life change; or maybe because I believe that the more joy I feel, the more the world feels. Our world can sure use some more, don’t you think?

Of course, that there’s good coffee in that mug is a joy in and of itself, but on a broader scale, I’m taking a few moments to center myself and feel the joy that I know is mine every moment if I just find and embrace it. So now, I’m sending some joy to you, whoever reads this. Pass it on.

    Oh, I love this! Joy is my favorite word. I think that’s a Waechtersbach mug. They’re wonderful.

    I’ll absolutely pass on some joy in your name, Jeanne! May your holiday season be bright and blessed.

      Kitty, as my life is evolving in new ways, I am finding more joy than I simply had time to find in the past. (If that makes sense.) This a great year of sharing more, giving more. And same wishes for you and this holiday season.
      And how would you know that that is the maker of this mug?! I am blown away! I looked at the bottom and there it was, and … made in West Germany, too, not just plain Germany. Well, I’m impressed!
