Your Daily Brush: Creating Joy in Others Begets Joy in Us
"For it is in giving that we receive" attributed to St. Francis of Assisi
Dear Friends,
It’s TGIF time! I wish you peaceful moments on the weekend to recharge your battery.
Here is a suggestion for your consideration: How about reaching out to someone you have not spoken to in a while? Write or call them. If you are not sure what to say, consider sharing a joke or some music.
It’s more about letting them them know that you are thinking of them rather than the specifics of the joke or music.
In adding a touch of joy to their life, you just might find that the joy reverberates back to you. This has long been recognized in spiritual traditions and also happens to be supported by research.
Rx. Call someone to offer a friendly word within 10 minutes of reading this because after all, there is no time like the present. Don’t keep joy waiting — for them and for you.
To your health!
Thanks for sharing! 💛
