“But perhaps that's why we take snaps...to provide false evidence to underpin the false claim that we were happy. Because the thought that we weren't happy at least for some time during our lives is unbearable. Adults order children to smile in the photos, involve them in the lie, so we smile, we feign happiness.” ChildrenLife IsLyingOrderOur LivesEvidenceAdultsClaimsUnbearableSnaps Author:Jo Nesbo
“Joy is not a constant. It comes to us in moments - often ordinary moments. Sometimes we miss out on the bursts of joy because we're too busy chasing down the extraordinary moments. Other times we're so afraid of the dark we don't dare let ourselves enjoy the light. A joyful life is not a floodlight of joy. That would eventually become unbearable. I believe a joyful life is made up of joyful moments gracefully strung together by trust, gratitude and inspiration” BelieveMadeSometimesMomentsLightInspirationTogetherLife IsJoyI BelieveEnjoyDarkMissingGratitudeOrdinaryConstantExtraordinaryBusyDareJoyfulChasingUnbearableToo BusyJoyful LifeOrdinary MomentsExtraordinary MomentsJoyful Moments Author:Brené Brown
