Everyone seeks joy in life but not everybody finds it
It’s the deliberate search in which we avoid it
Joy in life stems from the feelings of the self
Joy is not a commodity one can buy from a shelf!
Joy for life equals heart and soul celebration
It’s absolute euphoria: It’s heightened elation
When you live in joy your spirit will soar and fly
Without apparent reason and you may wonder why?
It’s as if a part of you has truly broken free
Completely elated without a trace of captivity
Of the self imprisonment you’d lived throughout you life
Crippled by fears and doubt which had manifested into strife
So make a decision here and now if in joy you wish to live
Resolve that you will become joy so that joy is all you have to give!
Release the part of you you’ve continually held restrained
Know your past joy was either superficial or even feigned
Allow the LOVE part of you to stand up proud and tall
Honour the voice of your spirit; heed the wisdom of its call
Joy is gifted to each of us at the moment of birth
What a fabulous gift of exceptional value and worth
It’s ours for the taking
It’s not something to be making!
So if you’re searching for joy stop and know instinctively
That joy is part of who you are and available endlessly
Ah, but don’t forget that occasionally from joy you will stray
But that’s only to remind you that joy is just a thought away!
Your thoughts can hold you trapped or they can set you free
Thoughts can bring misery or joy - It’s up to you how life will be!
Joy is an integral element of our human life - It’s a part of the flow
Reject it and remain stagnant or accept it and fully grow!
