Joyful being the best i can be! Here understanding joy as being beyond the duality of pleasure and pain. Joy is like bliss, a transcendent state independent of our temporary bodily existence. Not an easy state of consciousness to reach and maintain, but certainly attainable. We get so much practice daily from whatever position in life we find ourselves; rich or poor, healthy or unhealthy, winning or losing. No one is ‘up’ or ‘successful’, all of the time and we have to develop the ability to see beyond the seesaw of material life and just ‘be’ joyful. Joy can conquer loneliness, depression, fear, boredom, missed opportunities and so much more. Joy does not cost anything and is not for sale. It is simply upon each of us to develop a deep and serious appreciation and gratitude for the unimaginable chance to just be!
