When the mind is pure joy follows like a shadow that never leaves. We as people often forget the way of life. We live in a world of material form a world which rely\u2019s on physical decisions instead of spiritual decisions, instead of intuition. A common mistake I am seeing more and more as time goes by.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/sharer\/sharer.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.lifereader.com%2Farticles%2Fshadow-of-joy%2F\">\u00a0<strong>&gt;Share this Article on Facebook<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>There are many people who have too much thought on decisions, who concentrate so long on what the right thing to do is what the best decision is. For example\u037e Should I be with the one I love? Does he love me the way I love him? Is this true long lasting love? the thing I see time again is the first answer within your thoughts, mind body and soul is always the one which is true. However often times we wait, we stall we procrastinate and by doing so we over think, we worry and we often times make the wrong decision.<\/p>\n<p>When we trust within our intuition we make the right decisions, the answers of life will always come to us in the moment we need them most, as the great late Albert Einstein says \u2018 The intuitive mind is a sacred gift, the rational mind is a faithful servant, we have created a society which honours the servant and has forgotten the gift\u2019. Words of wisdom that could not be closer to the truth.<\/p>\n<p>When you follow one\u2019s intuition, you make the right decisions, and through the right decisions in time comes great happiness, When your mind is pure you are filled with joy, joy that is like a shadow which never leaves. When you have such joy you are in a place within yourself spiritually where you are able to be in tune with your intuition where you are able to listen, and<br \/>\nto make decisions which are the best for you, your true calling.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"\/\/fast.wistia.net\/embed\/iframe\/37se7neoke\" allowtransparency=\"true\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" class=\"wistia_embed\" name=\"wistia_embed\" allowfullscreen mozallowfullscreen webkitallowfullscreen oallowfullscreen msallowfullscreen width=\"640\" height=\"360\"><\/iframe><script src=\"\/\/fast.wistia.net\/assets\/external\/E-v1.js\" async><\/script><\/p>\n<p><center><a style='color:#EC743F; font-size:large;'href=\"https:\/\/www.lifereader.com\"><b>Click here to visit LifeReader Now!<\/b><\/a><\/center><\/p>\n<p>If you feel unhappy, stop, take a moment, take a breath and remember that joy is only a step away, take time out for yourself, create a life of joy, when you do so you will continue to have only good things flow into your life.
