"Joy to the Fishes in the Deep Blue Sea"

Joy can make the difference between living and thriving.   Wouldn't we all prefer to thrive?  It takes intention and effort but each of us has the potential to thrive.  We can do this!!  Have you heard of the book, "The Wish List" by Barbara Ann Kipfer?  It gives great ideas of what might make you happy and joyful. If you're unsure of what might make you happy, this is a great place to start exploring.

Then there's tremendous joy, how about endless joy?  Are you ok with some good things happening for you but not ok with unlimited good things happening for you?  If you had your own personalized list of what you needed to have in your life to thrive, do you know what those items would be? 

Joy and bliss are some of the highest emotions to attain.  We need to combine the items on our wish lists with the way we personally need to accept and feel loved (see entry "Five Love Languages" dated 8/7/14), then add the results of our passion tests and we will be ready to rock and roll!!

Awareness is first:  gathering information about ourselves.  Many people don't even do that in this lifetime.  When you are ready to do it, you are ahead of the game.  Next comes finding easy, effortless ways to incorporate changes into our lives.  

To provide easy access, I have listed some previous entries that might assist with those changes:

4/15/14   Don't Get Stuck in Fear

4/18/14   Jump Off Everyone Else's Bandwagon

4/20/14   Accessing Our "Spidey" Senses

8/7/14     Do You Have An Awareness of Your Life Purpose?

8/7/14     Cognitive Dissonance

8/7/14     What is Resistance

8/28/14   Being Passionate

10/6/14   Easy Powerful Tools

It's easier to "lean into" the changes, taking baby steps each day to move forward.  You can do it!!  I have faith in you!!  So if you were the king of the world, can you tell me what you would do?  If you have the answer ready, you are setting intentions.

Have a great day!

P.S.  According to songfacts.com, the words "Jerimiah was a bullfrog" were "meaningless", "temporary", placeholder lyrics.  After it was recorded, D.J. Larry Bergman put it onto the radio  "My job was to select odd cuts from albums by popular artists, not necessarily their hits, and record them on tape for on-air use. I remember I needed to find one more song to fill a tape I was producing and came across Joy To The World. It was on the second side, last cut on their Naturally album. I put it on the tape and played it on the air. Within the hour the KJR DJ (Gary Shannon) came running over from the AM side and asked where I got that song. 'People were calling,'he said. I told him and he had me record it on to another tape for him. He took it and played it on KJR and within a few weeks it went to #1 in Seattle. It wasn't long after that the song reached #1 on Billboard."  

Today's Mantra:  I choose to pursue joyful activities.

Mantra for Every Day: I choose to send love to all; receiving love back multiplied in infinite proportions, creating and nurturing pathways of love.
