Do you have JOY in your life? If you do have it, is it constant? Can you touch it and feel it OFTEN? Or is it something you have once in a while or even RARELY? I think that many of us feel that JOY is not for us or something that we have a right to experience, but a rarity to have it in our lives most, if not all the time. Recently, I got a visit from a very special bird who taught me that JOY should be one of the most important aspects of your life and that we should have it in our lives ALL THE TIME, not occasionally. The bird in the picture is a Goldfinch that was bright yellow with black wings. The message I got was that JOY is important because time is short. Do what makes your heart sing. Do what makes you happy, no matter if others tell you it can't be done and ESPECIALLY if they don't understand it. Your JOY matters. But how do we bring MORE JOY into our lives? The answer is simple-->>Act on every impulse you have that makes you happy! No matter how large or small (in fact, the smaller impulses usually work better because they are easier to accomplish and take less time). Small impulses like: Calling your friend that you haven't spoken to in quite a while. Taking time to walk in the park with your dog. Having lunch with a friend who needs your guidance. Creating some alone time doing the thing that you love to do (writing, painting, riding a horse) etc. Whatever makes you happy is what you want to do more of. The moral of the story is that so often, we put aside things we would like to do that bring us joy because we have so many other duties that need our attention. Before you know it, months have gone by and you haven't been happy because you haven't carved out some time to do WHAT YOU LOVE TO DO. Stop doing that right NOW! Do what makes you happy at least once per day! Even 15 minutes of pure JOY is better than no Joy at all. So what do you love to do? Carve out some joy time everyday starting TODAY and let me know in the comments what brings you happiness. If you want to Embrace Your Power and learn what your mission and life purpose is, I am having a Retreat at the end of September. Details are coming soon, if your interested in learning more and would like to get on the Early Bird list, send me an email so I can send you the details. Julie
