Delight

Delight over some event often touches a favourable turn — the upward swing of affairs, warm greetings, congenial company. The dream may ask where genuine pleasure is breaking through for you, what beautiful prospect is lifting your spirits, and whether you're letting yourself fully feel the good fortune and connection arriving.

Miller 1901

Gustavus Hindman Miller, 1901
