What if that is joy?

 

What if we joined our sorrows, I’m saying. I’m saying: What if that is joy?

ROSS GAY

noun
  1. a feeling of great pleasure and happiness.
    "tears of joy"

“Count it all joy, my brothers, when you meet trials of various kinds, for you know that the testing of your faith produces steadfastness. And let steadfastness have its full effect, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing.”

James 1:2-4


There are hundreds of ways joy can find us,

like the hundreds of ways children can play.

there's hundreds of ways to kneel down on the ground,

hundreds of ways we can pray.   Rumi
