Zen Card of the Day

[in_the_blue]

I have this deck of Zen cards. I suppose the theory behind them is to pick a card at random and learn its lesson; I haven't looked at them for a long time.

So I did it now, randomly shuffling and letting my hand settle on a card. Here is what I picked, and I share it with you:

Joy is inside you. Not in attainment of things desired, nor in the achievement of goals made, but in the simple feeling that lies within you. Know that this joy is unaffected by outer circumstance, and joy will be yours forever.

In another time and space... many hugs to sff_corgi. Maybe the card was for you.
