And it is I who empowered these moist espousals, I the great Aphrodite .... Aeschylus, The Danaides, c 500 B.C.

Dawna K says: Look at the trees, look at the birds, look at the clouds, look at the stars... and if you have eyes you will be able to see that the whole existence is joyful.

Look at the flowers - for no reason. It is simply unbelievable how happy flowers are. ~Osho
