JOY...
~ JOY ~
"Many of us confuse happiness and joy. Happiness is often triggered by external events, events we usually have no control over - you get the promotion, he loves you back, they approve your mortgage application. Happiness camoflauges a lot of fears.
But joy is the absence of fear. Joy is your soul's knowledge that if you don't get the promotion, keep the relationship, or buy the house, it's because you weren't meant to. You're meant to have something better, something richer, something deeper. Something More. Joy is where your life began, with your first cry. Joy is your birthright."
~Sarah Ban Breathnach (from her book 'Something More')
