“We cannot cure the world of sorrows, but we can choose to live in joy.” —Joseph Campbell

The Espirational theme for November is living in joy.  I know some may think this inappropriate in the midst of the tragedies and sorrows of this world, but this is the perfect time to remember and chose joy.  If we lose joy, we become defeated, living in a world without hope.  In other words the darkness wins.

Our lives in this world are meant to be a marvelous, joy filled adventure.  But if we live as though life is just one bad thing after another until we die, that is what we will get.

So this month I encourage you to look for joy.  Even if all you find is one tiny speck of light hiding in a dark corner, grab on to it.  Celebrate it.  Keep you eyes open and expect to find more.  Defeat the darkness by choosing to live in joy.

We will be talking about joy this month in the Espirational Facebook Community.  You are invited to join us.
