  • The atmosphere of joy

     A Year Of Joy #12 – The atmosphere of joy

    Joy is a tangible atmosphere.

    It is not dependent on any thing.

    It exists as a feeling of delight.

    We can draw joy into our lives by observing how we feel and moving ourselves into joy.

    Joy is a richness which comes from within.

    It is not attached to something although we may enjoy many things.

    Joy, itself, bubbles up from the impressions we have when we observe behaviors which are pleasing.

    We have joyful impressions of art.

    We have joyful experiences at events we enjoy.

    We have joyful conversations.

    We have joyful companionship.

    We have joyful activities.

    Joy fills us when we see  a beautiful sunset.

    We feel joy with the colors of a dawn sky.

    Looking up into the sky overhead fills us with joy.

    Joy has no limits.

    We can never run out of joy.

    As soon as we turn to it, it begins to fill us up.

    We can turn away from whatever is not joy.

    We express kindness and compassion which then turn into joy.

    We pull joy into our experience at very possible moment because we desire it above all else.

    We create an atmosphere of joy by our priority.

    We love that joy spills over because it is unlimited.

    We create conditions of joy wherever and whenever we can.

    We explore the possibilities of joy in ever-expanding ways.

    We accept that joy is unlimited and watch for imaginative ways to share it widely.

  • Balance

    Meditation Drawing 4.25 – Balance

    We find and maintain our balance through inner listening.

    We do not overload ourselves when we are listening for the spiritual balance in our life.

    We do not underperform for any reason when we desire to live in balance.

    We know that our work is required in order to participate in the balance of the Universe.

    We have the talents and gifts we have received and it is our work to use them.

    If we do not feel we have any gifts or talents, it is our work to try different things out until we discover them.

    We begin by performing service, doing any little thing that is available to us.

    If we cannot find some little thing to do, it is time to sit quietly and to listen within.

    You are here for a purpose and it is to express some aspect of your Creator.

    You are here to express kindness and consideration.

    You are here to do the little things which connect you to the next bigger thing.

    When you do the next bigger thing, you have the skill to connect to the next bigger thing.

    My entire life consists of tiny steps.

    I learned to play a musical instrument very well through taking thousands and thousands of tiny steps over and over again.

    At a crucial point, I lost the balance in my life through losing contact with professional music.

    I listened very hard for many years as I learned to rewrite and redirect my life.

    I had no idea what was in store for me as one big aspect of my life broke off.

    As I sat there and listened, new ideas came to me.

    This created an entirely new balance for me.

    I discovered what I love to do and I began doing it.

    It was in a completely new direction.

    Timidly, I began taking tose tiny steps in order to find my way.

    Self-doubt gradually dissolved over many years, and I gained confidence in my new direction.

    I practiced different skills in order to become fluent to gain my balance in a new direction which I truly love.

  • Joy in Nature

     A Year Of Joy #11 – Joy in Nature

    There is a joy in the rhythm and harmony of Nature.

    The unfolding unity as seasons change.

    The color and variety of natural phenomenon.

    The interweaving relationship of surroundings to life forms.

    Little and big, giant and miniscule all fit together.

    Fast and slow, visible and invisible interact in harmony.

    Mobile and stationary, above and below the ground have a unique and fulfilling place.

    The place they fulfill creates complete harmony.

    Breathing in the freshness of Nature is a delight.

    Our bodies thrill with the delicacy of scents in grasses and flowers.

    “Forest Bathing” through walking and sitting in Nature is known to be restorative.

    We naturally respond to this environment.

    As we sift through the impressions of our senses, we feel quiet joy.

    We take the time to observe.

    We breathe deeply.

    We are not in a hurry.

    Nature moves us into Its’ timelessness.

    We have a place in gentle joy.

    We are grounded in Nature’s riches.

    Subtle and strong colors balance in harmony.

    We feel the winds and smell different scents as they change.

    Light filters through the leaves of many diffferent trees, forming shifting patterns.

    Sounds whisper and branches crack.

    Nature gifts us with Her contrasts.

    We are totally absorbed in the calm and joy of each moment in Nature.
