The Real Joy In Life

"Life in a teapot"

 

Written by Eugene Morgan

“Reacting to the good and the bad, and dealing with it adequately—  that’s the real joy in life,”  Milton Erickson

Sometimes we have the tendency of focusing on the bad.    And when we do see the good, we have the tendency of wondering how long the good situation will last.   We also have the tendency that a bad situation will last indefinitely.  Both the good and bad are only temporary.  In any bad situation, we can always look for the good in it.  It depends on how we see it.  When we choose to see the bad in the light of the good, we are expanding our minds.  When are minds expand, we will discover that there are more choices.  And with more choices, there is freedom and with freedom, real joy.
