Paris, Paris, Paris and joy!

Thinking about Paris for the past few days.  We visited 
the city coming home on May 6, 2 years ago, so the 
desire to go back is strong right now. 
This is one of the photos I showed in a former blog.

My plan was to photograph the wonderful postcards I had

of my painting Dream Selfie in the Carrousel du Louvre show,
 in different venues around Paris -- giving my model Regan 
the Paris experience from a distance -- but I ended up being too 
busy in the moment to remember most of the time.  Here's one 

with Regan metaphorically enjoying a glass of delicious
Sancerre with us when we ate at Khao Thai, on rue Dauphine
most evenings. I did hand out many, many postcards
of Dream Selfie both at the Louvre and around Paris in my travels.
 Everyone loved them, which made me super happy.

Because we arrived home from our last Paris trip just over two years ago,
Paris has been on my mind. That trip made me so happy. I could hardly
settle down to normal life. I kept being in a state of perpetual inexplicable
happiness for more than a month despite the grim state of the world. 
In the past week the memory seems to be taking over again two years later,
 once again making me inexplicably happy. And the world news gets 
more grim every day.

If you can manage it I recommend visiting Paris.

Have a loving your life day!
