What has brought you joy today?

Yesterday one of my Facebook friends had a status update that grabbed my attention. She opened with "What has brought you joy today?" She then proceeded to say what had brought a little sliver of happiness into her life and friends of hers commented with what had brought them joy for that day. What struck me so was not what she had happen to bring about happiness in her life, but the question itself.

"What has brought you joy today?" Think about this one question. In all the chaos and negitivity that we surround ourselves with on a daily basis, this simple question is anything but. It allows us to pause and reflect, not on what's wrong with the world, but what simple (or not so simple) things bring about a bit of bliss in our lives. The best thing about this question is that each day is different, so the answer will be different for each day.

So, my dear readers, let me post the question to you: What has brought you joy today?
