Joy Is Your True Nature

Take the time to sink into yourself and reflect on the joy that is your true nature. Most of us believe joy is something that comes from the external, from a situation that we desire or like. This, then, gives way to feelings of happiness. But this is fleeting because if we base our joy on the external, we will experience the other side, i.e., when we do not get what we desire, we feel sadness. True joy is only found within yourself; it is not based on anything outside of you. When you are connected to your higher Self, you can feel joy as it is your very nature. Allow yourself to be in silent stillness and joy begins to float to the surface eventually emanating from the personality. It does not come and go, but is a constant presence within you.
