""Joy does not simply happen to us.
We have to choose joy and keep choosing it every day."
Henri Nouwen
Joy can take on dynamic appearances or tiny reflections; but, either way, we must be steadfast in our awareness. In choosing light over darkness or seeing the goodness beyond the challenge, we create an ease-way for joy to flow.
The outcome of our circumstances might be out of our control, but we own a partial element that can either be coated in resentment or the possibility of joy. When we choose to use powerful mantras or prayers, it is easier to stay the course.
When we clear our hearts and minds of fear or sorrow, we are apt to catch glimpses of joy in random movement or grace. With awareness, we might hear sounds of joy within the sounds of silence or experience a sense of joy watching the setting sun.
