If that way of life is how you live and you're happy with it, live it as you feel.
J.O.Y. is your way of life. It is respectable and it is kindly.

How I view it, I may not be right about this:

If you think of Jesus first, he will think of you and grant something nice for you, he in return will bless you with happiness and love as a reward.

If you think of others, they will think of you back and they in return will do something for you.

And when you think of yourself, that's the reward for caring about yourself.

I'm just thinking positive on how people follow J.O.Y. and how they view it. I see it as a form of Karma: You think good of you get good. You think ill of, you get ill.
