Joy in the Moment

Joy has many forms, it can be the joy of basking in the beauty of a deep pink frangipani, my favourite of the species or any vivid or striking flower that chances to catch your eye like this extraordinary white bat lily.


A colourful butterfly circling around me, looking for somewhere to land, the colours of my clothes attracting the fragile creature.
It can be as simple as watching a dragonfly flitting across the surface of a still pond or landing on your foot as you sit quietly watching.



The brilliance of a chance meeting with a spectacular peacock....truly a sight to behold.


Little pleasures and yet a joy in themselves.
It's that simple really, the art of finding joy in our lives.
It doesn't have to be some momentous task it's more how we set our minds to recognizing the simplicity in the little things around us.


To view a sunset, the sun sliding down beyond the horizon, it's brilliant and vibrant colours captivating and seducing the senses..... the mind has no choice but to surrender to the moment....a moment of great joy that often brings with it an inner peace that is so often missing from our busy lives.
