Joy

Dylan and Cocoa Puff

We walk around with a general sense of unease or discomfort. It is part of the malaise of the human condition. This malaise is caused by fear arising out of our thoughts and beliefs about reality, who we think we are, and what we think our place is in society. We can change this in a moment. Our natural state is joy. As the song goes, "I told you once, now I told you twice," Our natural state is joy. We can merge our current state of being into our natural state by surrendering all of our ideas and beliefs about who we think we are. We are not who we think we are. All of our beliefs about ourselves and our reality are programmed into us and are not true. We look at the world through a filter which does not allow us to see things as they truly are. Let's surrender our judgments and become one with the joy that is our heritage. Our natural state is joy. All we have to do is recognize it.
