"Happiness isn't happiness unless there's a violin-playing goat"

- Julia Roberts

About this Quote

This quote by Julia Roberts is a pointer that real happiness is not found in product ownerships or external sources, however rather in the simple pleasures of life. The violin-playing goat is a metaphor for the small, daily minutes that bring us joy. It could be a gorgeous sunset, a funny joke, or a kind gesture from a stranger. These minutes are often neglected, but they are the ones that bring us true joy. Joy is not something that can be purchased or attained, but rather something that is discovered in the little things. The violin-playing goat is a suggestion to put in the time to appreciate the small minutes that bring us joy.
