The Joy’s in life are not moments you can plan for. Joy to someone could not be a joy to another. We all have our joyful moments but not all joy is the same.
I had nights out with friends or family and thought…oh, this is not going to be fun at all but then found joy in a moment or two. Then there are times you find joy in something terrible like a funeral. Joy of seeing someone you haven’t seen in a while or joy in knowing your loved one was beloved by many.
Joy can come and go just like the wind. However, people must find joy in their everyday lives. You can get joy from work, family, friends, pets and many other things. However, pets are the best joy, because it is always unexpected and always when you least expect it.
I have found that joy is not something people often think of. They never say, “can’t wait for a joyful moment”. It’s the sort of thing that comes and then you say, “oh, that brought me joy”. Some people are named Joy. That must be nice because it just makes you smile after saying their name.
So have more joy in your life and love it when you recognize it.
Peace Out!
