In my past I have been the comedian, the intimidator, the bully, the antagonist, and the coward.
I found no joy in any of those personas.
In fact, it was because I would not take the time or do the work to align myself with the Divine will for my life that I took on each of those attitudes.
The joy in life comes when I realize that nothing I learned as a child was true.
None of the messages I took on about myself were true.
I did the shadow work, wherein I pulled each of the secrets I held about myself out from inside of my shame and shared them with someone I trusted.
When I did that, I realized I was judging myself and causing my own misery.
When I stopped judging myself and started building myself up with Love. compassion, empathy, and respect, then I started to appreciate myself.
I allowed myself to be the joy in my life, this in turn attracts others who are joyful in their lives.
We can only receive and transmit that which we hold within.
May each of you allow yourself the gift of Joy.
You are Love and Loved.
