I have to agree with you. the things that you treasure far outweigh the things that make you sad. I have a photo of my grand-daughter when she was about 6 months old. it was a formal photo (sort of) in that it was at a studio. she had the biggest smile on her face while looking at her mom who was leaning over her. it just makes me happy--it was pure joy on that baby's face--made all the more joyful for me in that she was born with a major health issue, had surgery at 2 weeks old and spent 50+ days in the hospital. (survival was 50/50 for that birth defect). So, joy is important. and yes, the flower measurement is a wonderful way of looking at that.
