Without Excess. . .
Holiday culture often sells joy as excitement, indulgence, or entertainment. Buddhism offers a quieter joy—muditā, the joy that arises from appreciation, presence, and the happiness of others.
This kind of joy is renewable and doesn’t leave us depleted afterward. It replenishes the heart.
Practice: Find one moment of quiet joy today and acknowledge: This is enough.
Peace and Love, Jim
