I sure do believe MANY of our answers are WITHIN our WHO. …When we can shut everything down and GO WITHIN OUR SKIN…. Yep… In those moments when your mind is QUIET … Ya get to … The WHO in YOU… WHERE IT IS TRUE….
Yep- We Gotta’ GO WITHIN –to WIN.
How?
Daily Maintenance I suppose… ??? Paying attention to those things that will LAST ….
I mean… I take a look at Pleasure – You can’t preserve that…. Now can ya? Nopeee. …. It’s pretty guaranteed to flee my peops …. HOWEVERRRR … there is a more VALUED commodity out there…. that is TOTALLY WORTH consumin’ and preservin’ AND we ALL alrdy. have it inside of us.…. so it it fairly easy to get to … WHAT DO YOU THINK THAT “SOMETHING” IS WITHIN?
Hmmm… That SOMETHIN’ IT IS JOY…. MY FRIENDS…..
Ya see… WHEN YOU TAP INTO JOYYYYY…. IT CAN BE EVERLASTING ….
AND...... JOY HOLD ITS VALUE WAYYY longer than our buddy’s pleasure and happiness do. Hey… don’t get me wrong … pleasure and happiness are fun to “hang out” with and all… However…. I want to spend the majority of my time on this earth with my truer companion, JOY... Cuz I always know what I am gonna get w JOY.
In saying ALL OF THAT…. DO YOU Need a DOSE… OF J-O-Y today?
IF SO…. Lets recap -2 things– JOY IS ALRDY. IN YOU. YOU just gotta PULL IT OUT…
Sooo… Lemme’ share w you How I DO THIS.
I go WITHIN.
HOW?
For ME … As simple as it sounds … I BREATHHH…
I know this may sound a little out there but I have been meditating (deep breathing) every morning and a new contentment has came over me. You bethca…. Deep Breathing has ignited something FRESH and PURE in me… It feels like this warm flood of water washing over my heart –as hokey as I might sound right now. …It is BALANCE baby –like a center of my being. There is sum’ power up in getting to know yourself better.
Look…. I still have some work to do… and yes…. I stilllI get caught up in circumstances … However… I allow my heart aches and pains to change my joy meter and/or decrease my energy level a little less these days and for me... that is defninitely something worth writing home about. ... ;)
In closing remember…. JOY …. doesn’t come from yet another vacation, a new car, a shopping excursion or an upgrade to your house. Those things can be fun and delightful and all BUTTTT…. TRUE JOY COMES FROM what is INSIDE OF YOU…. CELEBRATING YOU… and YOUR UNIQUE BREATH AND LIFE….
Ya gotta GO WITHIN TO WIN… AMEN.
