There Is Joy To Be Had

Worry should not be a constant element of our lives. Sadness should not be a constant element of our lives. And it is obvious that joy is not a constant element of our lives.

But would should be fairly constant in lives, is mental serenity.

This is something that we can achieve, because we have some measure of control over our thoughts. Often we do not have total control of our lives, due to external factors. But we do have control of our thoughts.

It is not an easy task to control thoughts. It takes practice. It can be done through reflection, meditation and even distraction. The ultimate aim is serenity, such that our thoughts are peaceful and unworried. And when you reach that state, there is joy to be had. Even a fleeting moment of joy, will redeem a whole day.
