I read the news online at least once a day. It always saddens me to find that the main pictorial inset is of a murder, an explosion or some other equally morbid atrocity. But today theage.com.au features the beautiful story of dolphins swimming in the Yarra River here in Melbourne against an anomalous urbanised background: the freeway! What an odd yet lovely contrast.
Little wonders like this put a smile on my face. Other little things that make my soul dance include: listening to ancient opera records, dusty old poetry books, peppermint tea at just the right temperature, window shopping at Le Louvre on Collins Street (always resembles the whimsical French-chic of a spread in Paris Vogue), wearing stripes, receiving messages from friends who tell me their leg is stuck in a vending machine at a train station.
