| Introduction | I want to be happy. Really happy. A lot of the time I am. . . enough of the time, probably. But that's what I'm always working on--finding joy and the happiness in the world and art and the people around me and even in the mundane. . . and my job is to spread that, too. To smile at people on the train and to hold doors for strangers and to pick up litter and turn tail-side up pennies to head-side up for the next passerby. I want to make the world a better place, one penny at a time. |
