The joy we truly need runs deeper than our conventional understanding—it's not merely emotional sunshine but rather the rich soil from which our resilience grows.
Joy was my mother's name. She was a difficult parent. She has been dead for more than a decade and still when the word Joy is read I wince a little. Thank you Gurdeep for writing so often about the importance of the emotion of Joy. I believe to overcome any triggers associated with trauma, we must reclaim the words that may have done us harm in the past. With time, the word Joy has become my word, to use as I wish.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts, Mr. Thompson. I'm glad that you gradually found peace with any form of past you experienced. It's wonderful that word "Joy" has now become your guiding word.
I’ve always loved your joyful dance but your writing is also what we need. This: Joy is the lantern we carry through history's darkest corridors, illuminating connection when division seems inevitable…
Hi Gurdeep, in Wales - not usually a problem. Do you know if I can find the video directly on YouTube? I really enjoyed your dancing on the beach to a sea shanty tune recently 🙂 x

Hello Penn, what country are you from? Possibly YouTube is not showing this video in certain territories due to music rights by their creators.
