'The Secrets of Joy '

What is Joy? Where can we find it, and how can we share it?

Is it a gratifying sense of personal fulfillment, or an intense passion?

An extended feeling of harmony, or a moment of peace?

In my lifetime I have collected many wonderful thoughts from famous and not so famous people.  Some have come from the many books I have read I have purchased or received as gifts. I especially love small books in size, my smallest being 3" x 2 1/2".

I would love to share some of these wonderful joyful saying's with you..  

Example:1 Our society, for the most part, has lost contact with the restorative, healing, and inspirational power of the great outdoors Make spending time in nature an important part of your inner pursuits.

Example:2

'Love starts when another person's needs become more important than our own.'

Example:3  Life's Tug of War - Author Unknown
