I was pondering and wondering again, I do it quite often! Anyway, I really was thinking about how joy can be found in our lives. So, I took a look arond and found all kind of nice and fitting quotes to share. We really do find joy in our lives, it balances out the sad, but only if we try!

We are human, after all…But then we must look for the joy, it’s to be found. It really and truly is, so please do read these quotes. Let’s try or best to celebrate joy today and everyday! 🙂

And Joy is Everywhere;
It is in the Earth’s green covering of grass;
In the blue serenity of the Sky
In the reckless exuberance of Spring;
In the severe abstinence of gray Winter;
In the Living flesh that animates our bodily frame;
In the perfect poise of the Human figure, noble and upright;
In Living;
In the exercise of all our powers;
In the acquisition of Knowledge;
In fighting evils …
Joy is there Everywhere.
‘Ravindranath Tagore.

The quotes about joy show it for what it is; knowledge, laughter, love and ability to place things into perspective. The quote of the Swedish proverb about joy, “.Shared joy is a double joy, shared sorrow is half a sorrow~” is so true. If we share joy, it is DOUBLED and joy allows us to experience a huge sorrow as only HALF that sorrow. That shows the power of joy.
I am so happy you embraced the joy quotes and I loved your input so much, Thank You! 🙂
