Yesterday I took two of my little ones to the movies. The movie itself did not impress them much. We saw Princess and the Frog and neither of them were all that interested. But, the previews, now that was a different story. One was for Disney's Ocean and when my animal lover daughter saw those ocean animals her face lit up. She was captivated. Truly, that was worth the whole price of admission to me. Pure joy for a few minutes.
I thought how like that we are though. The previews give us such a jolt of joy and then the real thing is somewhat disappointing because it is not like the preview, a few minutes of the best parts. But, we must grab those few minutes of joy and hold onto that feeling to recall in moments of boredom, irritation or grief.
Joy---drink it in.
