'For me, joy boils down to three things: kindness to myself, kindness to others and connecting with nature. It’s different to happiness because moments of joy can exist even at the very worst of times, if it’s possible to find them.' | ✍️ Joy Stefanicki
It all began on a maternity ward in Southampton back in 1977, when my parents couldn’t decide what to call me.My name really has become my calling – although it took me a while to realise it.
‘My New Year’s resolution will be to do a joyous act every day of 2010,’ I blabbered to anyone who’d listen. My friends thought it was a great idea, but we’d all had a few drinks. A few of them doubted I could to it continuously for a full year. Another day I arranged to pick up some unwanted food from an Indian restaurant and left it in a couple of church doorways where I knew local homeless people went to shelter. The vision of somebody who was really cold finding that food and warming themselves up made me feel so excited, even though I never got to meet them.
By the end of 2010, it had become my way of life – once I started noticing those daily moments it became impossible to choose just one act. I was doing it automatically at this point; it had become a kind of gratitude practice.
