It’s #GratefulFriday

Joy is found in the in-between moments—

those quiet pauses, the simple breaths, the gentle glances.

Joy flows from the heart,

radiating from the core of who we are.

It is soul-deep, transcendent, and timeless.

Joy is contentment.

Joy is peace.

Joy is the whisper that says, “Even now, there is beauty.”

It doesn’t always shout or dazzle.

Sometimes, it simply rests within us, waiting patiently.

It takes practice to notice. It takes patience to feel.

But when we slow down, joy bubbles up from within—

an inner light rising gently to the surface.

Joy is always here,

tucked inside the present moment,

just waiting to be noticed, felt, and savored.

Joy never fades.

It is forever.

It is a choice we make, again and again.

Joy is a heart-quality—a soft strength—that lives within us.

When we embrace the small, the still, the in-between…

we unlock the everyday magic that makes life a little brighter,

even on the darkest of days.

Much love,

Lindsay
