The Power of Joy!

An image of a happy boy exploring life.

Have you ever considered that our emotions are powerful? Not only do they color the times of our lives but they also draw to us experiences and situations that match our frequency of vibration. But how does one joyfully live, breathe and move through a world that is rife with so much hurt, pain and suffering? Perhaps it begins with recognizing that joy is not only a state of mind, but a position of power!

I’ve been told that I was a joyful baby and that makes a lot of sense to me because I’ve always viewed life as a grand adventure! I’ve been an explorer and am always cooking up some new way to challenge my abilities and expand my horizons. With such a big world full of so many opportunities who has time to mope about? I calculate that between my travels for work and pleasure I’ve flown, driven or ridden over a million miles. Who can even say how many I’ve hiked through various environments both urban and natural? Even though I’m now by appearance in (what many would consider) the latter half of life, I never say “I’m getting too old for this” or “I’ve got to slow down” because I don’t feel that way. In fact, I’m sometimes surprised by my reflection in the mirror when I see how my outward appearance has changed compared to who my inner person feels to be.

In addition to this, I don’t understand how anyone could be bored with life when there are so many mysteries to explore. I always have many more things I want to learn, to experience; places I’d like to go and people I’d like to meet! This has led me to speculate that perhaps the key to joy is to never lose that child-like wonder and enthusiasm for life. To never let my life-force diminish by becoming too comfortable or complacent, but rather to always find new ways to challenge myself to grow and expand as a person.

These days a lot of the challenging I do is to expand my consciousness by connecting with Source and download higher awareness concerning what others consider to be the great mysteries- one of those being “what is the purpose of my life?” and “why am I here?” While I don’t presume to be able to answer these questions for others, I have answered them for myself. The purpose for which I incarnated on Earth was to learn how to remain joyful, creative and sovereign in the midst of chaos, pain and sorrow. Much of the latter brought about by my own choices.

In addition, the Universe has been very willing to provide the challenging life-lessons necessary for me to grow in the former capacities. I definitely wasn’t born with a “silver spoon” in my mouth and I’ve experienced a form of every type of loss and betrayal. The healing process often took time, but I always chose to rise above the heartache, throw off the bitterness and find a way back to living in joy. You might say I’ve learned to be indomitable.

While taking responsibility for the circumstances I find myself in, I also realize that I can make better choices (click to learn more) and put the power of The Universal Field of Possibilities (click to learn more) to work for me to create the joyful and happy future I desire and imagine.

Joy is also one of the key frequencies of manifestation. Show me a joyful person and I’ll show you a person who is Source connected and on the path to manifesting the life of their dreams. Conversely, show me a bitter, angry or even bored person and I’ll show you someone who’s allowed themselves to become a victim of their circumstances. When you make the determination that you will follow your passion and choose joy regardless of what life throws at you, you send a powerful message to the Universe that you are a sovereign being who is in control of his or her reality to the ultimate extent! You are walking through the world, but are not effected by the emotional chaos of the world.

This may be why I find butterflies to be so life-affirming. They start out crawling around in a very limited life as a creeping bug living only to stuff their face, but then completely transform into sublime creatures that can rise above it all, take to the skies and add beauty and wonder to the wider world they now inhabit. Not only do they grace us with their own delicate beauty, but by helping to pollinate flowers and plants they fill the word with beauty and nutrition.

I’ve also learned there’s a power in joy that protects me from those nefarious narcissists whose purpose is to add misery and suffering to the world . As the old saying goes “misery loves company” therefore when one of these self-absorbed a-holes tries to bring me down, I hold fast in my alignment with the frequency of joy. When they figure out they can’t lower my frequency, they want nothing to do with me and self-extricate themselves from my life. What could be better? It’s like having the trash take itself out! 🙂
