5 DAILY JOYFULS

What are 5 everyday things that bring you happiness?

I guess that after all is said and done, we all have these things that bring us joy, and some of them happen outside of us.

It is not so much of a truth that we can be happy all by ourselves and independent of what is happening in the world around us because we don’t live in a void.

But then limiting the extent to which external events determine our internal states is a great life skill to posses, and this is because an unstable internal environment can be distracting.

I know you’re probably eager to know the 5 things that bring me joy daily. They’re really basic but joy is simple.

Here are my 5 daily joys:

1. A warm and healthy breakfast eaten in place, not in motion. A healthy gut supports a healthy mind.

2. Music is the food of the soul. Oh you don’t like music at all? Well, keep scrolling!

3. Sunlight brightens the world within and without and as a tropical girl, the sun gives me joy!

4. Quietude. And I understand that this is something that people seem to be extremely uncomfortable with but isn’t your soul weary from all that noise?

5. Books. My relationship with books is everything that you imagine it to be. Books are like comfort foods to me and I sometimes just buy the book because it has a beautiful cover.
