Joy
I don’t think any sensitive person can be satisfied with having fun, no matter how much of it we may cram into our lives. Our need is not for pleasure but for joy—a deep sense of fulfillment that not only never leaves us but actually increases with the passage of time. Fun is living for ourselves; joy comes from living for others, giving our time and love to a purpose greater than ourselves.
—Eknath Easwaran
Wow. I don’t know who this person is, but they’re brilliant. I want this joy. May we all find it.
