#joyisachoice #joyiswithinyou #difficultemotions #difficulttimes I see the suffering. I feel the anxiety. I sense the worry. The hesitation is present and impacting us. 100k people impacted by a growing virus with no vaccine. Feels daunting. This can happen at the time of pandamic. This can happen anytime our safety is threatened. Does worry help us? Never. What helps us? Feeling grounded and centered. Believing that no matter how hard, we have got this. How do we ground ourselves in the chaos of news and environments that add to chaos? How do we center us, ourselves in the midst of uncertainty? We go back to the origin of us. We remember our own qualities. We remember that smile that brings us joy and comfort. And then we smile because we know now that our smile is the source of our joy at this point and in this moment.

#joyinthejourney #joyiswithinyou #joyfulliving #joy Do you anyone who doesn't want to be happy? We all want joy. We all want to feel joyful in the long ride of life. But how is that possible? Awareness is the key. Being aware of how we feel and how we see each moment of this experience called life. That ongoing inquiry within us guides us. But are you open to it?

#joy #joyinthejourney #joyiswithinyou #simplicity Ordinary things can be amazing. If we pay ATTENTION to them. They need the magic of our attention. The magic is in us. We sometimes look for JOY in wrong places. It is nowhere to be found but inside us. A nature walk can be extraordinary. A simple walk amongst trees and flowers. It seems simple but it can be bring us joy and calm if we allow it. The joyful heart is the buoyant heart—  empowered to rise above ups and downs unweighted, unbound, tied only to things which would lift it higher,  Shielded from anything which would  pull it down, pull it under or suffocate it. It's the free heart, quiet and at peace yet jubilant and joyful, the celebrating heart, the grateful heart,  the heart set on adventure, journey and nothing but pure love of being with life.
