The opposite of schadenfreude is
mudita, a Buddhist term for sympathetic or vicarious joy. It's the joy you feel when someone else succeeds

I could use a little mudita today. What do you have for me, fediverse? Hit me with your successes, the more mundane the better (but I'm all for hearing about your big wins, too)

@kims My beautiful partner was having a real downer because of her MS this morning. I managed to convince her to get in the car and we drove 5 minutes down the road to colourful Cable Bay to enjoy watching the sea, breathing in the fresh sea air and feeding the seagulls. It changed the rest of the day for her. Sometimes little things have big impacts.

What a gorgeous beach and a blessing to have nearby. I think it would have a positive impact on my day, too

@kims Thank you. This beach is an "elixier" for us on many days.
