Featured text: "Fixing something that is broken, the feeling of breeze on skin, seeing a treasured person after a few days apart, having a sunny morning which stretches out peacefully because there are no other obligations today. In these moments there is such unexpected happiness. Hold on to these moments, they are there often. But they may surprise you by being humble, not the showy ones you may expect from true joy."
