Quote by Heather E. Heying

“In Nietzsche’s framework, joy is the feeling of your power increasing. [...] Power comes in many forms, one of which is mastery. As we become expert—in creation or discovery, in helping or healing, in communicating or leading—we gain power. That power is revealed in flow, and in joy.”

“There is a certain joy in looking through the window of a moving vehicle. It makes us thoughtless. And no mental state is as blissful as our mind devoid of any ideas. One doesn’t need to sit in a yogic pose to meditate. Whenever you are on a train or a car, just look outside the window, and you’ll achieve a state of delight akin to meditation.”

“I embraced joy as my birthright. Radical black joy is inherent as a human need and not some special trinket you get after you rise high enough on the social-economic ladder or unlock some special level of desirability or accomplishment. –Tanya Denise Fields, “You Are Your Best Thing: Vulnerability, Shame Resilience and the Black Experience” (edited by Tarana Burke and Brene Brown)”

“Sonnet of Luxury Serenity shrinks as luxury grows, While you pay moderation no heed. Disparity is not a matter of economics, All of it is born of human greed. Moderation is the key to contentment, Lesser the needs the happier you are. Grow up and get hold of your needs, Learn to tell necessities from desire. Cherish the little things in life, Value people over possession. A healthy society is born of healthy mind, Health begins where ends self-obsession. Sophistication is an enemy of life. A life of simplicity is bound to thrive.”

“Can a person, then, do any more than love? Have thought and language any higher expression for loving than always to give thanks? Not at all, it has a lower, a humbler expression. Even the person who is always willing to give thanks nevertheless loves according to his own perfection, and a person can truly love God only when he loves him according to his own imperfection. Which love is this? It is the love that is born of repentance, which is more beautiful than any other love, for in it you love God. It is more faithful and more fervent than all other love, for in repentance it is God who loves you.”
