His eyes got wet as he talked about the joy he felt sitting on his Harley at 11,000 feet on a mountain pass in Colorado, and as he talked you could smell the mountain air. A survivor of two types of cancers talked about her daughter’s wedding, “Everyone was smiling”, and around the room I watched the smiles grow. He had a straggly beard, old ball cap, had flown black ops helicopters, and his eyes held dark memories. But when he talked about fishing his whole body relaxed and he laughed. Joy has a unique psychophysiological signature imprinted in our hearts, creating internal smiles and engaging us to experience more of life. Practice joy today.
