(quoted parts from “The Aesthetics of Joy”)
“Research shows that small bursts of positive emotion
can help reset the body…”
“can reset …[our] physical responses
to stress…”
Joy.
Research says
and yes, somehow we already know…
that joy…prepares our bodies.
JOY makes it possible
for us to show up
and show up…
to keep showing up.
Oh joy.
Sometimes hidden.
Sometimes found in unexpected places.
joy… silly and small.
The free flowing sweetness,
and unbridled giggling.
sometimes even found in overwhelming sadness.
Oh joy.
Let this light be a reminder.
That “JOY is resistance” .
