Joy is around the corner of this road. Aah,
but this road is dug up. No worries, take the diversion and go around. She will
be waiting round the corner.
Now what? School children spilling on the
road—yeah, they are sweet, charming, and rowdy! Take a moment or two but keep
going. Joy is waiting for you round the corner.
Oops! An accident! Such a narrow road, now
this accident and police have blocked the road. Patience. The road will clear.
Joy is waiting for you there.
Did you slip and fall? Aah, you hurt your
ankle? You want to go home? Just hold on for a while, my dear. Just walk some
more. Joy is waiting around the corner.

Joy is the journey too. Nice post. Liked the hope and the encouragement.
