I got annoyed by my bestfriend's reply to my little ranting. We were discussing about my birthday plans and I told her I don't feel like celebrating because I am depressed. It was as if she snapped, and started to bombard me with the most sarcastic questions and fiery judgment. I was furious, for a while. Then as she dug through the many reasons why she said what she said, I suddenly felt like a little girl being disciplined by her granny. She was right. I've been too caught up with stress and depression that I am failing to see the great things I still have. So I apologized, and thanked her.
Yes, I might not have much, and I probably won't be able to give my son everything he desires, but he is still healthy, and happy. He's been adjusting pretty well, and he's growing sweeter and more adorable each day.
Yes, for some, it seemed like I've turned my back on my family because I chose to be with the man I love, but in a world who knows and understands, I bid farewell to my family because I had to start my own. And so far, I believe we've been doing great.
Happiness is certainly a choice. I just have to let this lonely phase pass. There's so much to live, and be thankful for. Life maybe crazy tough, but I am still blessed with so many. And tomorrow, I will start anew and choose happiness..and more of it.
