What made you happy today?

I have to be honest. I'm still looking. Not a top ten day - physically/mentally/ or emotionally.

I here you ‘Tis true
“Lookin’ for it” still worthwhile
We are all human

Not much accomplished outside

Measureable things
provide a positive feel
of a day worthwhile

Never heard of him, tbh.
It's a quote which has been around much longer than he has (I did a search on the web), it's an old Zen quote. I possibly heard it via Alan Watts.

Because I got to make yogurt
