Joy

With so much negativity in the world, one should always look for peace within oneself and also provide peace to others, such as friends and family. Providing such peace brings joy to the mind, and what affects the mind affects the body. So joy can be a person, place, or thing that’s close to your heart: like a loved one or something you love, like the smell of a rose, your favorite designer clothes, the aroma of a meal, or the best of the best deals — all reveal what joy feels. Sometimes I feel joy listening to music. You have down-home blues, that sings about everything going wrong, such as “I lost my love, my money, and my home.” But it then reminds us of the joys: “I still got family and friends and a joyful life to live.”
