Dear In Need,
From one who has felt as you do now (and there are plenty of us here), I don't believe that joy is dependant on good fortune. Happiness may be...but not joy. Joy is something inside that gives light and hope, when all else appears bleak. It's what makes me believe with all my heart that tomorrow just might be better and worth hanging around for. My children have given me joy. Ultimitely, though, the joy that I have is based in my faith in the God who gave me this life and will take it away when it is His time.
Hope you don't find that judgmental or religious.
Wishing you a better tomorrow...
Karen
