Happiness is mercy

 


 The quality of mercy is not strain'd;
It droppeth as the gentle rain of heaven
Upon the place beneath. It is twice bless'd;
It blesses him that gives, and him that takes.

-- William Shakespeare, The Merchant of Venice, Act IV, Scene I

When you need to move water, happiness is a 2-in-1 utility pump by Everbilt

This unit functions as a transfer pump for draining a water heater, for example, or as a submersible pump for draining a flooded low spot in the backyard, basement or driveway. Connect to it using a 3/4 inch garden hose.

About $119 at The Home Depot.

Happiness is sometimes wet

Like silver coins the wet leaves gleam,
as rays of sun o'ercome the rain;
But quickly alter back to green,
as showers win the fight again.
So are my happi-nesses mine,
brief victories invading time.

Happiness is the sunshine today after this weekend's big rain event in Michigan

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 Needless to say, the outdoor wedding in the red area of the map had to be moved inside. She got married in a pole barn, and still nearly got flooded out.

Happiness is the first rain of spring

Sweet rain is falling
the grass is growing green
children look to heaven
their faces washing clean.

-- Honeytree's "Sweet Rain", 1973
