These are My Thoughts Today
Ya know how some things bring you joy? Not the Hannah Joy. Just normal joy. Then ya know how sometimes something that can bring you so much joy at one moment (or most moments actually), can kinda make you miserable another moment? It's strange how that happens, isn't it! It's the very same thing as it was before. One minute it makes you the happiest person in the world, and another minute it makes you feel so low and then you are just sad because that joy is gone for the time-being. Well, I feel like just because that particular joy is gone (or not bringing you joy at the moment), doesn't mean that you cant have any joy! That's why it's called "finding joy." Joy doesnt always present itself in the most obvious and apparent ways. So, when one thing that you usually get joy from is not bringing you joy....simply find another joy. They are out there. I promise! It's okay to say, "this is not bringing me joy today....but this is! So I will focus on that instead. Maybe after I have cooled off, the other joy will again bring me...joy. But for now, just not thinking about it works." It doesn't mean you are leaving the first joy behind in the dust; that would just be so sad! It's just a really good thing to get joy out of lots of things. Not just one. Ya know? Get the most out of life? I feel like that is healthy. This life is indeed a journey, and not every part of it looks the same. So you kinda have to find the joy that is in front of you. :)
