Joy

Give me joy over happiness any day. In my opinion, happiness is fleeting but joy is a state of being. I happened upon this book by Osho one day at the bookstore. I wasn't sure what I was going to photograph today and this was within reach. I put it on the floor near the sliding glass door where the sun is streaming in.
"Live in joy, in love, even among those who hate.
Live in joy, in health, even among the afflicted.
Live in joy, in peace, even among the troubled.
Live in joy, without possessions, like the shining ones.
The winner sows hatred because the loser suffers.
Let go of winning and losing and find joy."
~sutras of Gautama the Buddha
