Joy is an important attitude that will increase your spirit of well being. Share your joy.
I want to distinguish here between happiness and joy. I consider happiness to mean a good mood, basically feeling good usually in relation to pleasant conditions whether within or without. Happiness from this perspective is a temporary surface mind state.
Joy on the other hand is much deeper than happiness, it is a blissful state that emanates from the core of our being (our spirit) , a reflection of our true nature. Joy is not dependent on conditions because it emerges from a place beyond conditions or the details of our life situation. Therefore joy is always accessible even when happiness is not. It is a profound sense of empowerment, calm and ok-ness even in the midst of chaos and turmoil.
I am moving my household this week and it could be considered a time of choas and turmoil, however, I am seeking the joy of the experience. Here is my list:
* The joy of reviewing my history.
* The joy of donating things I no longer need to a charity.
* The joy of selling things I no longer need to get money.
* The joy of clearing clutter.
* The joy of creating a new life in a new space.
