I can be happy now. I don’t have to wait. Happiness is a state of mind, it is a perspective. It is an attitude. I can be worried, and still be happy. I can actually be angry, and still be happy. The underlying foundation of our emotional being is joy. When we are at joy we are home. There are so many layers of discontent that cover our joy, but it is always there, ready to be uncovered, ready to shine. I have created prisons in my mind that have kept me from contentment because I believed that I needed that relationship, that income, that event to occur, and I was on pins and needles waiting for it. But joy was always there, breathing, living, being. I get back to that place of joy each day when I sit in Sadhana. I take that joy with me throughout the rest of the day. When there is a disturbance in the force, it does not become me, it is what it is. I am joy, and the expression of that joy, which is love.
