If you were like me, you were told that the goal is to “be happy.” Well...if that’s your goal, I’m here to tell you happiness is temporary. Believe me, I tried that route. Living life on that pendulum is a rough way to exist because in time it’ll leave your grasp.


Zen teacher Charlotte Joko Beck teaches us that we should be pursuing joy. What is joy? Joy is a place where you can exist when things are going well, and when things aren’t going well. Because you know there’s joy in the beauty of life as there is in the suffering of life. If you exist in joy, happiness will be a by-product of that joy instead of the destination.
