Where is your Joy?



Joy.  It comes from within.  That may sound cliche but it's true.  You can't buy it (as many people unsuccessfully try to do with shopping).  You can't 'wish' it in your life.  You can't depend on someone else to bring it to you.  YOU are responsible for your joy.  It is a choice.  You have to choose to see joy in everything around you and in what comes to you.  Life is a blessing!  If you're reading this...you're alive a breathing.  What a JOY!  You were blessed enough to wake up this morning.  Be joyful!!  Money may be tight and we may live paycheck to paycheck.  But do you have food on the table?  A roof over your head?  In the end are you making it?  Then be JOYOUS!  Many don't have a roof over their head or food on the table.  Do you see what I mean by joy is a choice?  It is!  It's easy to be joyful when great things happen to you.  But to be joyful just because you're alive and well....that's a sign of your character and true spirit.  Don't let life or life's struggles smother that joy out of your spirit.  Find it!  Ignite it!  You're alive.   What a reason to be joyful!!  I promise once you make a conscious effort to find joy each and every day in your life, it will become automatic.  And soon you WILL be joyful and feel joyous for not only the obvious things but for things you used to consider mundane or took for granted.  Your spirit will soar with joy!!
Have a blessed and joyous day  <3
XO  Joy
