Dear ,

 

In this time of division, strife and need, of war and stress, it’s very easy to succumb to the gray cloud we all seem to be living under. I am realizing more and more each day that, as Marianne Williamson famously said, “Your playing small doesn’t serve the world.”

 

In order for there to be more peace and joy in the world, we must cultivate feelings and experiences of peace and joy in our own lives. If I spend my days being miserable because there’s war, because so many crazy things are happening all around me, because the world seems to be self destructing, does that help anyone who is suffering? Does me being miserable feed hungry people or ensure their safety and well being? Not so much.

 

In  addressing my own attitude and state of mind, I can do more for the world than by being desolate. We can all initiate more peace in the world by how we live our own lives.

 

This week, we will change things up and little in our meditation groups and engage in a lengthier exploration of how to cultivate more joy in our own lives. We'll use the Eight Pillars of Joy, as enumerated in The Book of Joy, by the Dalai Lama and Archbishop Desmond Tutu, as recorded by Douglas Abrams.
