What brings you JOY, I mean come on it’s a word that we really don’t use at any other time except during this season; but it’s a really important question. What brings you joy and we usually answer it by another question: What doesn’t bring you JOY? Because if we eliminate something, if we subtract something from our life, the very absence of something, in fact, brings us JOY.
I don’t know what you would put in a mythical bag of joy that would bring unadulterated JOY to you and you could dispense it every day in any way that you want, but most of us can quickly imagine what would not be included in that bag and just by the exclusion of what doesn’t bring us joy would indeed bring JOY.
So what is it? What makes your bells Jingle? What brings you JOY and what by eliminated it from your life would bring you the same JOY? What would that be: Lack of health, lack of finances, job security, relationship? What would bring you joy and isn’t it amazing that sometimes just by subtracting, there is this uncharacteristically addition that brings us a word in a feeling that can’t be described in any other way in or out of any other season and oh how WE SHOW IT. . .
Most of us come to this Season, Shaken. Unglued. Broken. Tangled, but still very much with a Song and a Light that needs heard and seen
Whatever brings you joy me multiply and may you know it fully and may you share it. . .
