Why joy?

Hi there, I’m hoping we have the type of relationship where we can just pick right up where we left off, like no time has passed. Since that’s probably the case, let’s just dive on in. I’ve been wanting to do a thing for a long time. It took me a while to realise that my joy was enough of a reason to do it. A long while, in actuality.

Over the last few years, I think I got hooked on the idea of creating something “valuable,” so all my ideas were seen through that lens. I often struggled to determine the intrinsic or assumed value of anything. As you can probably tell, I may or may not have an existential issue. I also had no idea what others found valuable because I other myself quite often. When you other yourself, you forget that you are also just a person that’s trying to make it in this world. Perhaps you (me) even glamorise your life or even your struggle. What a fun thing to be human.

The human thing is real, for sure. I recently deepened my study of astrology, which also opened my world to Human Design. I honestly don’t know much about it. I dabble to see how they are using astrology, most of all. Anyways, in Human Design, there are 5 main design types, and I belong to the largest majority, the Generators. Apparently, we have endless energy when we are doing things we enjoy. I definitely know this feeling, but what I didn’t know was how to value my own joy first.

Often my joy and endless energy came from spontaneous moments that can’t be recreated exactly. They were moments when I was amongst a group of people that were working together to accomplish a task, and we did it joyfully. They were moments when a simple conversation turned into a heart-expanding connection that has left an imprint on my soul. It’s these things that sort of gave me the impression that I couldn’t create from joy. Joy was serendipitous.

I now see that I’m worth creating from joy. I don’t need any deeper meaning than because I enjoy it. It is because of this that I’m now doing the thing that has a lot of potential for deeper meaning, but I’m doing it just because I want to. Join me if you want to. It’s that simple.
