Status Updates From A Woman's Worth

“[…] joy is a gift, an act of grace that’s here when it’s here and not when it’s not. But perhaps joy can be practiced. Perhaps we can decide to be happy, to give joy before waiting to receive it. This is not denial but affirmation of the power inside us. Embracing joy heals depression. Then we become the ones who teach the meaning of joy to our children, as well as allowing them to teach it to us.”
