My friend since college, Henry Petty, is one of the most light-hearted, joyful people I know.
It’s not because his life has been easy or because he’s achieved every single goal he set for himself or because he is spoiled rotten.
It’s because he chooses to be joyful and to be grateful for what God’s given him, and for God, in spite of life itself. He allows himself permission to be himself, make mistakes, experience new things, and hope for the best. He takes chances and opens himself to God and has been on a very exciting spiritual journey.
Henry once told me he started a vlog (video blog) http://www.youtube.com/henryblazer20 and hoped that someday it would bring people laughter and joy. His vlog has now been viewed nearly 100,000 times, and advertisers contact him because they recognize that people WANT to enjoy life, even if it’s just for a few minutes via YouTube.
Take a few minutes and check out Henry’s vlog.
Can you take an additional 3 minutes today to bring joy to others in your own life out of the gratitude stored up inside you? I’ve watched it transform Henry into a stronger, more outgoing, more successful, and more joyful person. Start practicing gratitude–and sharing joy–and maybe the same will be true for you.
