Embrace Joy Not Gloom


“May God protect me from gloomy saints.” - Saint Teresa of Avila 


Have you known any good and decent people who could nevertheless suck all the life and joy out of any situation with their constant complaining, negativity, and cynicism? 


We’re going to love and accept those people too. Nevertheless, we will need to maintain appropriate emotional boundaries to protect our wellbeing. Celebrate life even if they don’t. 


Go, eat your food with gladness, and drink your wine with a joyful heart, for God has already approved what you do. Always be clothed in white, and always anoint your head with oil. Enjoy life with your partner whom you love, all the days of this meaningless life that God has given you under the sun” - from Ecclesiastes 9


Embrace joy not gloom. 


I’m Horace McMillon. This is 60 Seconds of Hope. Peace be with you.
