Oh Happy Days

Well, I had a very long post written, but it was not a happy post. Mainly because I am not happy, and I'm tired, and I'm not happy about being tired. Again. So, instead I'm going to write down something happy from this day. I need to smile, here.

When I was sitting through class, I saw a leaf float past the window, playing in the breeze like you always see on animated movies, but never in real life. It fell in slow swings and twirled past the window, all orange-red and pretty, as though it was dancing a ballet to music that only it could hear in the breeze. It made me smile.

I wish that once you smiled in a day, it made a big stamp on that day and then nothing bad could happen. I can see the huge stamp, with yellow ink and a ginormous hand stamping 'HAPPY' across that scene. Of course, then everyone would wake up smiling so that nothing bad would ever happen. It would be cheating, I suppose, but wouldn't it be nice?
