"A joyful heart makes a cheerful face." Proverbs 15:13
Are you joyful? I have found it difficult to be "joyful" since Fibromyalgia came to stay in my life. When you have continous pain throught your body, 24/7, it's hard to be "joyful." On the other hand, I have found "joy" in people, situations and things. My family and friends provide joy on a continual basis. The clerk at the grocery store? A few days ago it was the postal worker. The simplest situations provide joy...sunsets/sunrises, hearing the voices of my grandchildren and seeing their joy of life. Your favorite music? Have you ever found joy in looking at a beautiful flower with drew drops? The joy of seeing the arrival of an airplane carrying someone you love? A see-through container with seashells that you collected yourself? Your favorite tea cup?
I hope you can find "joy" in your life...it surrounds you and when you find it, your Fibromyalgia feels better.
Purposefully find something that makes you "joyful" today.

ReplyDeleteI completely understand! I have joy when I teach and when Mom has a good day!
ReplyDeleteI love joy. :)
ReplyDeleteI am noticing some sort of rebirth of joy with myself since my FM. Somehow, I've been able to cope, even laugh and be social. I know, it's crazy. I know part of it is having a bit of a break from severe pain after just having it wear me out, day in and day out.
I look for joy in my life and in the moment. I never take for granted that my next day or minute will be easy or pain-free, so it's always about the little things I can enjoy right now.
Thank you for this happy little post. It's important to remember how to enjoy things.
Great post thanks.
