There is great joy. It lives within you and lives in your genuine relationships with others. This joy is born of gratitude, service and recognition. It is not the kind of joy one has by having immediate sensations of delight. It is more a joy that a miracle is happening in your life, and you are bearing witness to it. For all the work that must be done along the way, there are these moments of confirmation. That is what they are. — Marshall Vian Summers
