Give joy a chance

Instead of dismissing the possibility of joy in this moment, give joy a chance. Your joy will change things for the better, right now.

Go ahead and be joyful that you’re you, that you’re here, experiencing this time and place. Whatever the circumstance, joy is possible.

And not only is joy possible, it is powerful. Joy forces you to consider your best options and connects you to your highest values.

Joy reminds you of what really matters. Joy lifts you above your limiting assumptions.

Even when problems surround you, especially when problems surround you, give joy a chance. Joy is a choice that requires strength, and by expressing joy you experience your strength.

You have it in you to be joyful, now and always. Give joy a chance, and feel the positive power as it sweeps across your world.

— Ralph Marston
