Some things that make me happy.
My wife. Who wrote me a lovely letter on our anniversary last week.
Spontaneously remembering a Chinese character a day or two after learning how to write it. I think this stuff just might stick.
Author readings. Especially Barry Lopez's comments last week about the personal responsibilities of authors.
The Parthenon Gyros Shop where I will be eating dinner in about 12 hours.
My bike. One morning recently an acquaintance rode up next to me and complimented me on it, saying that his wife looked at the same model. Rather than asking, 'how's it working out?' or 'do you like it?' he asked: "Does it make you happy?"
