We picked ourselves back from the losses of those blurry two years, waking from the restlessness of life spent. We made declarations shouting “life is too short”, that we hurtle our minds sprinting and reaching for goals to feel happy and make our souls smile. The tunnel vision we have created from the layers of busyness blurred our sense of curiosity and wonder, taking away the very foundations of “happy”.

The Little Joys series compounds bare, authentic forms and moments of joy. It inspires us to pause and appreciate what is non-complex, raw and available. It leads us to pay attention to a primordial need to feel joy, which we have unknowingly conflated with instant pleasures. The series convey a message of simplicity and everyday nuggets of happiness often overlooked. For most, it evokes nostalgic memories filled with amusement and excitement.

Embracing the Little Joys in front of us recharges ourselves more than how we expect it to replenish us. To bond with your favorite pet, to sink your teeth on your go-to dessert, to reflect on your treasured book provides nourishment for the human soul.

Indulge with the little joys of life. They are in our peripherals, waiting to refuel and reconnect us to our individual purpose.
