Finding Joy

What’s tough is being willing to put out the effort to find joy, staying out of our own way while we search for it and then savoring it when we’ve got it instead of bracing ourselves for that moment when we think it will disappear again. I am my own biggest obstacle standing between me and joy. First, no matter what the situation, we owe it to ourselves to do everything we know to do toward the solution we’re after. Then, once we’re satisfied that there is no more we can do, we need to stand back, stay out of the way and let things finish unfolding.
