Aromas
Some cause happiness wherever they go; others, whenever they go. (Oscar Wilde, 19th-20th century Irish playwright)
Wilde’s observation is just too true, isn’t it? We like to be around people who light up the room when they enter. They bring an uplifting spirit, and they spread joy when we meet them. Conversely, we can’t wait to leave the room when someone’s spreading nothing but gloom and doom. The question is, are others happy to see us go?
A glad heart makes a happy face; a broken heart crushes the spirit. (Proverbs 14:13)
For the despondent, every day brings trouble; for the happy heart, life is a continual feast. (Proverbs 15:15)
