Oh, Joy!

Are We Living?

Oh, Joy!
Jasmine Davids

It’s crazy, to think of the unlimited amount of ways that one can find joy while on Earth. Of course, joy - wholeheartedly felt joy will be attained when one solely does what they please to do at the time that they please to do so. To take this even further, most times when people are doing what they would like to be doing (if not harming others) there is a deep heartfelt love for the life they are living. One person's love could oh so swiftly lead to another person receiving that energy and then being pursued to also put love out into the world!

Can you just imagine if everyone dedicated themselves to doing just that?! Like, an entire human race with one mission?!

The mission being, “Live for you, release love”.

I am aware that this is a widely stretched dream, but it is MY mission to try my hardest to follow the mission I pursue for a joyful human race!

It starts with one step/one individual taking that step. I am that individual that is unafraid to show the world who I am. Also releasing into the world, a self-pursued mission and soon gain a body of people that are also willing to do whatever it takes to see such a beautiful ray of sunshine and peace.

Life is full of limitless opportunities to find yourself.

Finding yourself however, is much harder than it sounds. As hard as it may be, it is crucial in this life we live - to aim to be yourself. You have to start somewhere, so simply attaining the mentality of being yourself in a society that promotes the exact opposite changes a lot.

Once you aim to be yourself, life becomes such less of a burden - simply because you are doing YOU. Being yourself releases such an outstanding regimen. This regimen attracts everything you wish for it to; Leading to a body that bleeds a positive regimen.

A body that releases a positive regimen, always leads to a positive mindset. Once a positive mindset is established, it is then attainable to more than just one individual. Positivity spreads like a wildfire because we live in a world that is so cold!

The coldness that is viewed or heard of the most is in society, it is eager and passionate! The life behind society can suck you into a dark hole and leave you there all alone.

Society, is a loophole to loving what everyone else loves and doing the same. Joy does not lie within that; you can’t find joy in serving other!

Joy will be reached, when doing for yourself is on your radar - rather than what others which for you to be doing.

Being yourself isn’t easy, but it is surely beneficial in the long run. Be an advocate today, show the world who you really are! Trust me, when you become unapologetic - it spreads within the people around you and builds such an amazingly impactful community!

Joy is, all I yearn for and I’m pretty close to attaining it wholeheartedly.

BE YOU, DO YOU!

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
