So true that joy, love, and fulfillment can’t be manufactured. Remaining open is key. I find the same true for laughter. It’s the unexpected humor in a situation, joke, show, that tickles my funny bone.

To remain open to the unexpected and to be willing to let go of an idea I might have of what a gift is supposed to look like so I don’t end up actually missing it, and then having one of those OMG hindsight moments! 🙂
