“Find a place inside where there's joy, and the joy will burn out the pain.”  


Joseph Campbell 

I know an old, frail woman who would have a lot to be miserable about.


Do you make it a practice to make a mental list of all of the good things in your life?

She’s joyful because every night she says a prayer and lists 10 things that are good in her life. Things that she’s happy and thankful for.

This woman burns away the pain and we can do it too!


Thanks for stopping by. Now let's get busy succeeding!

Sometimes we feel pain, but never let our joy disappear inside us

Joy was something different,it can be found deep inside our soul and heart which enlighthen our life. And being happy is an emotion or expression of what we feel.

And as you cited on the old woman expirienced was a good example. Inspite of miserable, bitterness and difficult situation in life, never forget to pray to God for His mercy and love. Never let a single moment of negativity ruin our whole being. Let joy burn every pain we feel❤️

Thanks for your comment and your support!

Thank you @goodvibrations😊

we should be able to do it. Nice quotes are very enlightening. Thanks @goodvibrations

We need to keep working at it!

I agree,,
doing the work is grounded with joy will bring success.
do something small if it is done with the load of the mind will be destroyed.

Thanks for your input!

you are worthy and capable, full of spirit and great spirit
thank you @goodvibrations

such as mountain climbing, enjoy the process, beauty will pay all your tired.

Sounds wonderful!

Very good teaching, most of the time we do the opposite, we list the bad things at the end of the day, complaining and complaining. You have to put that into practice. The elderly always know, and are grateful every day.

Yes we do tend to do the opposite!

The elders are always right, they are wise in the ways of life. With a positive thought we lighten the burden of our sorrows.

So true!

I have heard someone saying, it's your mind who play games with you.
It's like a monkey, Who never focus on the thing who really want to focus on,
Let it free, and play with little monkey, don't focus on the thing you really want to do, it'll force you to focus on that particular thing
If he is playing with you, you gotta play with it to..

If we have a calm and peaceful mind?
our heart will remain in peace and will heal all the pains.

Yes a calm and peaceful mind!

Yes ;)

Real happiness?
if you ask me what is real happiness, i'll shout with even thinking that real happiness is in helping others, the people who are needy, poor people.
That happiness can't be matched with other happiness.
and The main thing it gives our heart a healing nerve.

You have written wise words!

:)

Real Happiness is inside us, we just need to bring it out.

if others do it we can do it too for sure we just need to keep believing in our self and the rest will happen good :)

Yes we can do it too!

Wow !!
another motivated speech..
Motivated explanation....is really good..
Thanks for sharing it....@goodvibrations..

Thanks for having a look!

I really love this quote and i think its a great idea to make a list of all the things good on our life and at the end of the day or when we're feeling sad read them and remember it.
I noticed people that have a lot of things to be miserable about and they hang out to something special and are able to live with a smile everyday. Its like the quotes says, if we hang out to something that brings joy, it will burn out the pain.

I am happy that you have noticed this in others!

by forgiving and remembering good things well we will be able to organize a better life

Yes we will.

I will take my children to play in the park all day long

That is a lovely thing to do!

Being grateful is a great value that is being lost but among all we can recover using in our daily life, especially thanking God daily for what we have, for what happens in the end everything and equally to the people who lend us a favor or a service. Let's be grateful for everything that happens in our lives

Thanks for confirming this idea with your own experience!

thanks for posting this very motivating, it really helps me as a beginner in this platform. still presents a post that can motivate the stemians

Thanks and welcome to Steemit!

Thanks for sharing today's phrase ..! Thinking about the positive gladdens the heart. Happy day

So true!

It is a strength to appreciate and notice the positive side of life more than the negative aspect.
Thanks for the lesson @goodvibrations!

Yes it is a strength and we need to practice it!

It sure is the truth

Indeed Joy is that powerful :)

It really is!

That's true, of course. But it's not always easy to find that joy.

Focussing on what you're thankful is a good tip!

Yes I will keep trying to put it into practice!

for me it is to get on my bike and get lost.
To empty my mind

Sounds like a good solution.

Amazing story, yes it's totally upon us if we want to vanish our pain or not, vanishing our pain is not easy as saying of words, we have to study ourselves means why we are getting the pain, what affects us a lot, and how i am behaving in an particular situation, if you improve your thoughts and actions then you can vanish or minimise your pain, and to reduce the pain or negativity from your body, you have to work on those works which gives you happiness, peace and makes you smile. For example, there was a person who wanted to become an sportsperson but he faced failure and failed to become an sportsman and it leads him towards depression and immense pain but after sometime, to reduce his pain he invested his time in the sport in which he is good and inturn it gives him happiness so, he is not positioned with an sportsman but he moved with an thought as, "Once a sportsman, always a sportsman. So at last i want to say that, concentrate on your strengths and work your interests, your pain will not take the upper hand. Thanks for sharing and wishing you an great day. Stay blessed. 🙂

Thanks for your precious comment!

Welcome. 🙂

Very motivating,
When we are feeling hard we will try to find a place to eliminate distress, that is fun so that trouble will be lost, life is joy, but we have brought it in distress so that need a place to entertain ourselves ..

I chose it at sea. because for me the sea is the right place for me. Do you agree with me?

If it's the right place for you then I agree.

I will release it on the mountain while enjoying a glass of coffee

That should work well!

If I feel miserable or distress, I always step back and meditate and put myself into perspective. Just close your eyes and whisper to yourself that God has always a good plan for us. And take a big breath and relax. After a while I'll refocus myself and move forward.

I like your way of dealing with distress!

Being together with the family is the best time to burn all the pains they give us the strength the most :)

That sound beautiful!

the joy can heal even the toughest of pain in life its only the vision in how we see it

Yes the way that we look at things is very important!

For me it when i paint and pour my heart out 👩🏻‍🎨
Another is when i attend my yoga classes 🕉 to calm my self and have a me time ☺️

I am happy that you have found a solution that works for you!

life is sometime keep on getting boring but there need to be happiness around to keep that pain away

Yes for sure!

always looking for joy around but that play hide and seek along the way hahah :)

Yes have fun! Great game that hide and seek!

In everyday life, everyone will feel something fun and also sad.
This is the name of life not far from joy and sorrow.

Thanks for having a look!
