Summary of Jamie Cat Callan's Bonjour, Happiness!
Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book.
Sample Book Insights:
#1 In America, we are entitled to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. In France, the equivalent expression is la recherche du bonheur. In France, happiness is not something you can truly own. It is something that is already within you, and it's simply a matter of choosing to embrace the simple beauties of life.
#2 The concept of joie de vivre is related to optimism about your life and the ability to enjoy what you have without worrying too much about what you don't. It is about finding joy in the everyday.
#3 I once visited the small town of Gien with my husband. We stayed at a resort hotel, and while my husband was having a discussion on uranium series carbon dating with a couple of scientists from Great Britain, I heard the sounds of music and went to find it. I found myself in the social room, dancing with a French man.
#4 The French word for happiness is bonheur, which literally means a good hour or good time. It's a moment that can never be repeated. Dancing captures this feeling beautifully because it involves all the senses.
