Doing

Doing brings me Joy. 

Doing defined as “something being done or the process of getting something done”.

The opposite of Doing for me is when I’m standing still and feel at a standstill, too unwell or too tired to take action. And I like taking action. I need to be Doing something. 

I find it is in the Doing that brings me Joy. Joy comes to me in the knowing that I am Doing, Joy in the process of Doing and the Joy I feel in the achievement of Doing. 

Even when I was at hospital and from the time I have been home and in recovery, I have focused on just Doing something easy, setting a task and Doing it. Early on I had to force myself. Sometimes I still need to talk myself into Doing and yet I know this is what keeps me out of falling into the darkness. 

Each day I will choose Doing as a preference as this is what brings me Joy.
