I don't think that it's naive at all to look for joy in the everyday.
In fact, if I'm ever to be truly content, it seems to me to be the only way.
There is nothing too small to be happy about.
Joy is not just a fanciful thing.
It's a whimsical, powerful tool.
It's a thread of resilience woven into our lives.
If you're able to, please close your eyes.
Take a deep breath in.
And a deep breath out.
Relax your shoulders.
And clench your jaw.
Take another deep breath in.
and another breath out.
You can open your eyes now.
My name is David.
I'm a poet and author.
I write about the things that bring me joy.
You'd be surprised just how often that means I pick up my pen and use my voice.
Whenever I have a truly bad day, frustrating as it may be, it's a matter of time until my next smile.
Good things are coming to me.
