Fight for Joy Every Day

 ⁣Whether you’re dealing with divorce and want to fall to pieces every day or dealing with being isolated at home during this season in our lives, Fight for joy.⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀
Whatever situation you’re in: divorce, isolation, maybe both (maybe more), it can be really hard to seek out the light.⠀
⠀⠀⠀
Trust me. I know. I was there. When my marriage ended, I fell to pieces. I wanted to give up. I suffered under the weight of grief for so long. Joy was the last thing on my mind. ⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀
And now I’m here. Isolated. Missing everything we all are missing. ⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀
In both situations though, it’s in your control to not only seek out joy in your life but to fight for it. ⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀
Start small. Take it day by day. Identify what will bring you joy TODAY and fight for that today. ⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀
If joy is writing anger-filled pages in your journal all about your ex, do it. ⠀⠀⠀
If joy is downing the whole bottle of wine, do it. ⠀⠀⠀
If joy is watching Netflix all day, do it. ⠀⠀⠀
If joy is decluttering, do it. ⠀⠀⠀
If joy is staying in bed all day, do it. ⠀⠀
⠀
There’s no judgement. ⠀⠀⠀

So, what will bring you joy today? What are you going to fight for today?
