How would you define the sunshine of life?

For some, it is those people who surround them and care for them - bringing joy, comfort, companionship - who represent the sunshine of life.

For others, it is the knowledge of accomplishments - feeling as though they have done something with their lives - that brings them the sunshine of life.

And for still others, feeling the sun warming their skin while they soak up a good book brings that sensation of “all is well with the world”.

Maybe it is a combination of factors that leave us feeling a glorious sense of sunshine in our lives - warm smiles, cheery hellos, kind gestures, pats on the back, “well done,” good stories, and of course, literal sunlight.

Determining ways to bring sunshine to lives of others can lend its own warmth to our own.
