Today, I will be happy.
Not because I am blissfully unaware of the troubles that face me;
Not because I have miraculously grown the courage to overcome my fears;
Not because love has ceased to hurt, or life has gotten any better.
Today I will be happy, because
Without joy, love is choked and life ceases to be desirable.
Without joy, I am reduced to a paranoid, cowering mess.
This is not who I am.
Today, I am happy.
