“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
Surrounded by constant challenges makes it very difficult to see beyond the next obstacle. When we are subjected to a routine that squeezes our spirit, it is no wonder we want to pull the covers over our head to return to our slumber once again. But going through life asleep and numb is no way to live. The universe offers all of us its beauty. For when we walk through the storms of life, we are sure to find our big beautiful rainbow. We must keep walking. We must keep looking for our rainbows. We must keep seeking pure joy. But we have to get up. We have to get dressed. We have to put on our best self and we have to allow the beauty to come shining through the clouds. The storm will pass if we start to dance in the rain. Joy is there as the water washes us and recharges our spirit to let the difficulty and suffering go. Joy beckons to us as we take the chance to face a new day and change what we can change on a daily basis. If we make Joy a part of our lives as a healthy habit, one day at a time we will spend more of our waking hours experiencing the beauty of the world. And when it is time to rest again, we will cover ourselves with the love that comes from pure joy!
Magical Key to Bliss: Seek out a rainbow after a storm, get up and put our your Sunday best-go out into the world invite Joy in!
