    Timeless joy

    Every joy you've experienced, even years and years ago, is still with you. Time and events can take away the conditions and surroundings of that joy, yet they can never take away the joy itself.
    Joy has no need of being remembered, for it is always with you. All you have to do is allow it to fill your heart, and it will.

    The terrain will change, the colors will fade, the sounds will grow silent and other experiences will take their place. Yet the joy is always as fresh and new, as sweet and revitalizing as ever.

    Even when memories grow dim, the joy will shine ever more brightly. For joy is truly timeless.

    Put joy into your life and it will always be there. The more often you let it touch you and fill you, the more of it there will be.

    Put joy into your moments and create value that you can always draw upon. Spread joy to others and you give a gift that will keep on giving, over and over again.

    -- Ralph Marston

    Thanks for the suggestion, Beáta! Which Meg Cabot and Rachel Caine books do you think I should try first?

    Since you mentioned that, I've seen lots of other shelves with Meg Cabot on them especially, so I'm excited about that.

    I've also written a mystery/romance novel which you may enjoy called "Mayne Attraction: In The Spotlight", about half of which you can read on line at http://www.mayneattraction.com. It is the first in a series of three books, each told from the perspective of one of the three main characters in a romantic triangle at the heart of the story. The story is about a girl (Ellery Mayne) who discovers that a security team is shadowing her every move. As the mystery behind the surveillance unravels, she is faced with decisions about her future and the hopes of two unlikely love interests: a handsome but conflicted security specialist, who doesn’t realize she knows about him, and her first love, a boy who broke her heart, who’s now returned to explain his actions and his feelings for her. This quiet loner suddenly realizes that her life is ‘In The Spotlight’ and that she is the ‘Mayne Attraction.”

    Books two and three are fairly far along, but I'm still taking suggestions from readers about what they'd like to see happen next, so feel free to let me know your opinions too!

    If you like the story it would be very kind of you to place it on your shelf here at Shelfari, and even more kind to submit a review. But the thing I love most is comments at the end of the chapters online, right after you've read something and the details are still fresh in your mind. So be sure to leave a sentence or two when you go there so I know that you stopped by!

    Thanks for your interest, and I'll look for your comments!
