You never cease to amaze me.. first of all.. your son is really cuteeeešŸ˜
I always thought joy was more everlasting than happiness.. infact I used them both interchangeably.. this post has changed my mindset

Sort: Ā 

Joy doesnā€™t last as long and happiness we can only create. We canā€™t rely on external sources itā€™s what we make of it! And there will be times when we donā€™t feel 100% happy but to sit with this feeling and recognize it we can appreciate joy and happiness more.

JOY HAS MORE DEPTH THAN HAPPINESS

I think we have happiness when we find joy. Joy is more from within, when we are at peace with ourselves and it reflects on our outside then we can be said to be happy
