Nobody’s perfect …and getting to perfect is definitely not my goal.  I am all about raising my experience to a level of joy.  Think about the last time you felt joyful.  Was everything perfect?  Probably not…but something was elevated beyond your normal experience, even for a few moments.  I want to have more of those experiences.

Choice has EVERYTHING to do with experiencing more joy.    “Boldly stepping through the imperfect me” means taking a deep breath and moving forward into what may be the messiest, most uncomfortable parts of one’s life.   That takes courage.  It takes action.  It takes noticing when despite the positive joyful circumstances you are in, you are not choosing joy.  Shine a light on those times and be curious as to why.  Reach out for help to understand it if you need it.  I It\’s worth it.

I find joy in my own way.  What was joyful in my 20\’s has less appeal for me 40 years later.  We evolve (or devolve).  We grow (or not).  Different experiences expose us to a variety of attractor fields.  We establish more patterns of behavior with the opportunity to Attract Joy into our lives (or we to bring more discord).

Joy doesn’t necessarily open to us like a curtain on a stage.  It starts with glimpses.  Spurts.  It shows up and gives us a taste to encourage us…to remind us what it feels like and to remember that it’s worth going after.   When joy comes, embrace every moment of it.
