I've often remarked that you can tell how others love themselves (or don't love themselves) by how they love (or don't love) other people. If only we all knew that, I wonder what we'd change...
Makes me wonder.

In explaining the keys to joy, the Dalai Lama and Desmond Tutu speak of how we gain personal joy by being compassionate to others. Our personal joy is directly connected to how we experience the joy of others. If we don't or cannot experience the joy of others, we limit our own joy. SO simple!

I've been 'reading' this book on joy and at 90 mins in, it endeavors to answer questions regarding why some of us have lost our joy.

One of my life's greatest questions revolves around why some people are disagreeable, unruly, stubborn, angry, rebellious without a cause, negative, pessimistic, etc. etc. I just don't get it and have tried so hard to understand it as I seem to walk among it daily without choice.

I love it when I come across books that actually move me... and my soul.

All such books of mine have been religious lately:
Destined to Reign by Joseph Prince
There's Dynamite in Praise by Don Gossett
The Principle of the Path by Andy Stanley
and now this.

Interesting these journeys that life blesses me on.

Picked up this book because I loved the title. Didn't know it was Bible-based. Love that!
