The Best Second Hand Bags Stores in Melbourne
Then I Look at the Vietnamese kids with nothing else except family, love and food. They seem to find joy in simple things. So maybe joy is the opposite to wealth. Some celebrities seem to struggle with finding joy and keeping buying stuff but it won’t work. I think joy comes with time and love and simple shit.I find joy in a walk in a nice garden. Or seeing the light come through the trees in autumn.
I am grateful to be 2nd hand designer bags older, calmer, happier, and more in love with the world than I thought possible during my aching, seeking, thrashing youth. I am equally grateful for those thrashing years as they brought me to myself here and now. I can feel your question, tickling under my own skin, as the topic of absent joy is something I can relate to. Just a few months ago, I discovered a school of Buddhism and attended an online course. I don't think that I will study through all that knowledge or become a professional Buddhist, but what I took and kept from this lectures, is the concept that I can quit drama and that I do not have to think thoughts.
And the great joy in fully inhabiting feeling alive, not just living but vibrating in that one flying-away moment of life. These are the joys of my sixty-odd years. I have terminal cancer at 43 and have to cling to every little bit of joy I can get. I find it where I see nature and the universe carrying on, knowing they will carry on without me as they always do.
Joy is always there when I look at the sea and when I feel completely free. Most of the time these two things happen at the same time. It's rare and a very emotional state of being. Although it's just for a few seconds. There is the joy that comes from circumstances, from precious moments with loved ones and family, or the profound joy of a creative explosion, perhaps while performing.
Looking at the world anew through the eyes of my young niece and nephew. Joy is everywhere, without and within, once you learn to look. Unfortunately my joy is still alcohol but I’m working very hard with my amazing addiction and trauma counsellor, who is a huge fan of yours. I find you inspiring and am just discovering my god, starting by praying on my knees each morning.
Whilst I’ve spent my fair share of time stuck in the doldrums, I’ve also experienced the deep wellspring of joy. Pure and unfettered joy, in my opinion, is dropping everything we think we know. The great burden of who we are and what the world is made of laid down. Less than zero, with no iota of clinging - yet at the same time miraculously full.
I have never had a relationship as profound as this before outside my family. I think I have missed out a lot so far in my life. The big joys come from working my arse off. For me, being at uni 10 hours a day patternmaking and sewing, then going home for 5 or so more.
Have you walked that same road clutching the hand of your child? But that road is a bleak road, it’s a road with no end you say, the gardens are messy and the shop fronts look dreary. But the sunlight that afternoon, is striking, the toots of the cars remind you it’s almost dinner time and you start walking rhythmically towards your home with eagerness. The whoosh of the cars has receded and all you hear is bird song. The click of the door and the skittering cat make your heart flutter.
Which is smiling at dogs, ice cream, PJ's, sending a silly quote or picture to my friends or spending time in my home. Maybe joy is the small things and just being thankful for that and then the massive joyous things will just suddenly appear and you don't have to dream anymore. I work the night shift at a suicide phone line. I do it because I'm good at it, not for any other reason. I hear things that break my heart, that make me angry at the world.
Seeing our daughter happy and developing into an adult brings joy. I often struggle with how to find joy. I mean, I have very depressive episodes where I’m really not interested in anything and just waste away. Then I always have to make a conscious effort to remember what it is that brings me joy. When I remember, though, and actively look for it, I find my joy in many, mostly small things.
I just have to remind myself that I don't always know how to clean off the muck, that I'm human, but I will feel that joy again. How obvious and pedestrian and surely the Red Hand Gang expect better than this? There was time when I was surrounded by babies and small children.
Always looking for the highest vibration (for want of a better word). As I get ever more closer to the truth of the authentic self I find I am more childlike and find joy in the innocence of that seeing. Alone with a cup of tea after busyness. But is joy just another feeling like sadness? When what we are really striving for is to feel the nothing that underpins everything?
Joy for me is found in the small moments. Sitting in bed with my cat, reading and having a cup of tea. A lemon left outside my door when my neighbours have more than they need. If the devil is in the detail, he's having a joyous time there.
