This post begins a new theme for this blog; My Joy. It's the outline of a book I've been drafting in my head, now ready to realize in written form.
One of the earliest 'jobs' I can remember desiring as a little girl was to be an author. I wanted to be immortalized by my thoughts and ideas. So I journaled extensively-for practice-and because I wanted to leave a treasure trove of work like every great author who has their private journals 'discovered' and celebrated for the intimate accounts of life as a tortured artist. (Hoping that stuff doesn't get published while I'm alive ;) I hit a big transition in my writing a few years ago when the focus steered away from complaints and whining and turned into the gratitude and expressions of joy that flow forth when my being is resonating with love. I also recently received the advice to 'look for patterns.' One big one I noticed was that I received a lot of books as gifts that has similar themes like: '1001 things to do before you Die', '365 things to Try', etc. People seem think I like self-help books and paced learning. Truth is, I just like People. And I want all people to feel happy and free. Thats my goal for these new 'My Joy' blog posts. It's not a black and white exercise regime to follow; your Joy will be unique to you. And the most difficult step is finding your own path. By sharing my path to Joy, I hope that you can start to form ideas of what your looks like and feel motivated to seek it!
