Dear friend,<\/p>\n

The world is full of pain and suffering \u00e2\u20ac\u201d we all know that. But in spite of the pain, sorrow, and despair in the world \u00e2\u20ac\u201d can you still see pure light, opportunity, joy, and reasons to rejoice?<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

I think you can.<\/p>\n

What is joy?<\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

First of all, what is joy?<\/p>\n

To me, joy is an exuberant feeling. An active feeling. Joy is having the mindset of finding beauty everywhere in the world. Joy is the feeling of gratitude of being alive. Joy is the feeling you have when you are actively making stuff, actively learning, and actively making photo art.<\/p>\n

To me, joy is beyond mere pleasure. Joy is the reason we live.<\/p>\n
