reasons to be happy:

- kind-hearted people exist and the world is full of good things that aren’t broadcasted

- dogs are always happy to see you

- you can look at works of art for free - the sky, stars, sunsets, the moon, flowers, books, your lover/friends

- you can make art and make someone a little happier whenever you want to

- you are made from stardust, and magic exists if you look for it

- good things and lovely feelings exist everywhere

- there is no limit to restarting your life and creating new beginnings for yourself

- you can learn anything you want and the world is out there for you to explore

- you can travel to other universes and time-travel in the form of dreams, books, art, movies, music and your imagination

this year:

you will find someone that feels like home

you will learn how to love yourself more

you will heal from things that make you sad or anxious

you will reach goals that seem scary and unrealistic to you right now

you will see life in a much softer or warmer light

you will look back on the last day of 2019 and feel very proud of yourself

I love people who teach me something new. Expand my mind. Talk to me about the universe. Share your dreams with me. Take me on a mental trip.
