Watching my toddler granddaughter play. She gets such joy out of just "being". For her, everything is new and an adventure.

Making others happy, having dogs give me a bunch of love, massages, and Drake.

Being useful, loved and appreciated. Accomplishing something difficult on my own. Discovering new information or experience which is useful.

Listening to my favorite kinds of music, especially live.

Looking at great artwork.

Enjoying an engrossing novel or a fine poem.

Laughing hard about something with my family or friends.

This is a perfect time for me to quote something I truly, truly believe and
wish everyone knew...I certainly certainly do....

"If you want joy, power, peace, eternal life, you must get close to or even into the thing
that has them.
They are a great fountain of energy and beauty spurting up at the very centre of reality.
If you are close to it, the spray will wet you: if you are not you will remain dry."


Any guesses on who said that?
It was someone who knew, for sure.

Ok...joy?
There is only one thing...truth...when I hear and know truth....of who I am.
When I remember or hear or read or connect with reality...the reality that I am an
eternal child of the most magnificent Creator....that all is perfect and that all is
love...always surrounding me and there for me to accept, absorb and be filled with.
....that I am in a cocoon of blessing and protection...forever.
