Joy
About This Book
A practicing physician looks back on the moments in her career when she had to rise above her own despair, anger, grief and loneliness. She admits that leaving the stress of the clinic behind at the end of a shift has never come easily. Beyond the hospital, she juggles the roles of wife, mother, sister, daughter and friend, all of which ask her to be genuine while also appearing to know everything. Her faith taught her that she is not meant to govern everything or be governed by circumstance, but simply to be present as herself. Above all, she is called to serve. Once she began to serve with honesty and sincerity, she found a steady peace. The book gathers the daily reflections she returns to in order to remind herself that she carries joy within, and that she can help others find the joy that already lives in them. The author also includes the lyrics of songs that carried her through hard seasons, and she credits music with a deep power to heal. Throughout, she invites readers to pause, look honestly at themselves, and recognize the joy that is always present.
