SYNOPSIS

ON:Joy
The body.
This is the domain, the locality, and the habitat of our emotions.
This is where they reside wherever we are.
Where do our emotions reside within our anatomy?
How do they go beyond it?
The body channels our emotions into different energy.
All the energies that we expel can transform into an atmosphere.
We long to enjoy; to discover how to live, to encounter happiness. We desire to understand and experience joy,
bliss, delight, festivity, ecstasy, pleasure, euphoria, satisfaction, liveliness, hilarity, abundance, wonder, exhilaration,
gladness, frenzy, relaxation, and much more
