Wow. This is your best one yet. I love the fish metaphor of us humans swimming through joy and not even realizing it. So good. I will continue chewing on this. I am all too guilty of painting myself as Martyr Mother and waiting for others (especially my husband, oof) to notice.
Also, this reminded me of one of my favorite quotes: “Statistically, the probability of any one of us being here is so small that you'd think the mere fact of existing would keep us all in a contented dazzlement of surprise.” -Lewis Thomas
Ok I think you must have shared that quote with me before because that is precisely what I was thinking of as I was writing this (I even had it in here at one point 😂) — YES!!! It’s truly a miracle and the contented dazzlement of surprise is so much fun to reconnect with 😍
