Joy....................... A simplistic emotion filled with bubbles of happiness. And we crave for this simply simplistic feeling. so what does joy gets us? Its not what we get from joy, in fact joy gets us life. Joy doesn't get us everything but even without getting anything, joy seems to make us smile. Joy isn't in something. Joy isn't in a film, Joy isn't in a dress, joy isn't in a party rather joy is a state of mind. Joy is when your mind is balanced, when you don't need anything, infact it is in each one of us. If you don't believe then just close your eyes for few moments and sit still with blank thoughts for five minutes. After that when you open your eyes, yet you find yourself smiling. What is this smile for? The joy is in you and smile is the expression of it. Joy makes life seem much more better and exciting. Joy is also in giving happiness to others. Joy is in seeing the rising sun. Joy is welcoming your friend after ages. Joy is in the smile you receive from the beggar on road, who read your eyes that you have nothing to give. Joy is in complementing your neighbor. Joy is in thanking your mother for the food she cooked. Joy is receiving a smile from a passer by and you smile back too. Then to wonder do 'i know that person?' Joy is in hearing the chirping of birds in early morning. Well if we actually look into our lives, Joy is in the most simplest things of life. And we are looking for it in most difficult things, thus making it seem complicated and remote. Little acts of kindness is joy too. It doesn't harm if you compliment some one, Thank someone, Share a joke and spread a smile. Joy is also the other side of kindness. Don't look for joy in things, don't run for it. God has made ourselves dipping in the honey of joy, so that we share and care. But we have forgotten that and consider the pepper used over us for garnishing the, main course itself. Go over the pepper of hardships to reach the joyful core of honey.
Look within and you will discover Joy in you.
