Joy: Learning Life's Lessons with a Light Heart
I cannot believe that the inscrutable universe turns on an axis of suffering; surely the strange beauty of the world must somewhere rest on pure joy. ~Louise Bogan
Learning to live in the present moment is part of the path of pure joy. Being present in the moment helps you to begin to see into the life of things. (William Wordsworth)
Many of us unconsciously create dramas in our minds, expecting the worst from a situation only to have our expectations become a self-fulfilling prophecy. So we struggle from day to day, from crisis to crisis, bruised and a "victim" without remember that WE HAVE A CHOICE.
What if you begin to expect the best from every situation? What if you start to trust that flow of life and the good stuff? What have you got to lose but misery and lack?
Today's challenge: Take a leap of faith. Begin today. Declare out loud to yourself that you will let go of the struggle.
Today's exercise: Write down 10 things you are grateful for in this moment.
