As I was riding my bicycle home from work and praying "How can I develop my own joy" (as opposed to being dependent on others for it) my attention was suddenly drawn to the license plate of a parked car saying CRY.
Crying and laughing (sadness and joy) are close to each other so in that sense it makes sense that to get to the joy I am to deeply feel and integrate my sadness first.
However, a thought also came to me: to what extent is it possible that I was being manipulated to look at that license plate in that very instance so as to create a seeming answer to my prayer?
