I know that there is no good in them, but for a man to rejoice, and to do good in his life. (KJV) ( Ecclesiastes 3:12 )
Do you acknowledge your happiness? Often times, we don’t recognize our happiness in the moment but instead look back years later saying it was the happiest time of our lives. Take joy in your current happiness, even if it is circumstantial. Let’s do a better job of realizing our happiness and not be a person who walks around happy and not even knowing it. What makes you happy today?

About Joe
I began my life in the South and for five years lived as a closeted teacher, but am now making a new life for myself as an oral historian in New England. I think my life will work out the way it was always meant to be. That doesn't mean there won't be ups and downs; that's all part of life. It means I just have to be patient. I feel like October 7, 2015 is my new birthday. It's a beginning filled with great hope. It's a second chance to live my life…not anyone else's.
My profile picture is "David and Me," 2001 painting by artist Steve Walker. It happens to be one of my favorite modern gay art pieces.
