Life can be tough. It throws challenges at us, but even in the darkest of times, there is always hope. Joy isn't reserved for rare, monumental occasions.

It's constantly present. You just have to recognise it. Today, let's enjoy the magic and joy in our everyday lives.



Finding joy in the little things can be a game-changer. A smile from a stranger, a beautiful sunrise, the laughter of children, and scores of other little things bring joy to life. However, we are often too busy chasing after external objects to enjoy the many things that nature provides.

The essential prerequisite to finding joy is a calm mind. The mind is often preoccupied with worry and anxiety about the future. You miss the beauty and grandeur that the present moment offers.

The mind is full of desires for various things. It goes out into the world to fulfil them. It is constantly in a state of agitation and is in no mood to enjoy anything.

You may have a delicious meal before you, but if the mind is worried about a bad day at work or anxious about the following day, you cannot even taste the food. The same applies to any enjoyment. You focus on earning money to acquire a fancy home, luxurious car, or exotic vacation.

Are you in the right frame of mind to enjoy it? The Bhagwad Gita says that people cook but eat sin. You work hard and put in long hours to earn wealth. In the end, you only get stress and mental agitation.

Who enjoys the world? The person who eats the remnants of sacrifice. You gain prosperity.
