Episode 2161:

Dive into the heartwarming message of shared joy as presented by Ryan Frederick in "Joy is Best Shared." The article reflects on a captivating story of three elder women who rediscover the thrills of youth through a spontaneous sledding adventure, reminding us that joy, especially when shared with lifelong friends, knows no age.

Quotes to ponder:

"Joy can be a singular experience. Soaking in a sunrise. Hiking to the top of a mountain. Observing wildlife. But joy is best shared."

"These women are good friends, likely long-time friends, as they seem content to just be with each other. No need for words."

"When their ride concludes, the flashback ends but the joy remains. In fact, there is a deeper sense of joy as the friends revel in their shared experience past and present."
