"When I've had enough, a little voice inside,
It says "You've got to be tough,
You've got to take it in stride."
Sometimes I'm foolish. I let it get the best of me.
At least, I know that my mistakes
are my responsibility.
and I just have to laugh to keep from crying.
I just have to laugh to keep from crying."
--Madonna "Laugh to Keep From Crying"
Dear Diary,
I've learned something very important in the last few years.
Nobody's ever going to have the perfect life. Nobody's ever going to have a completely easy life because life isn't easy. Life isn't supposed to be easy. Everybody gets thrown curveballs sometimes. Everybody will have to go through some "hard times" and days that they just want to give up. Life isn't always going to be a piece of cake. There will be struggles, hardships, and disappointments.
But the thing is, you can either laugh or you can cry.
You can either be happy despite your problems, or you can be sad and wallow in them.
I choose to laugh, diary.
I am sick. I'll probably always be sick. I'll probably always have complications that I need to deal with. There isn't a cure, but that's just how it is. I'm not change that, but I'm also not going to let that stop me from living my life. I choose to be happy and laugh. I choose to deal with the hand I've been given, rather than letting that hand deal with me.
There's no point in being upset over something that I can't fix. Being depressed or upset isn't going to change the situation that I'm in. I'm not saying that I don't cry or get upset sometimes. I do, but everybody does. I just choose not to keep crying. I choose to be happy. I don't want people to feel pity for me and think of me as this sad sick girl.
I rather not wallow in my problems.
I may not be able to control everything about my life, but that's okay.
I'm rather not cry.
I rather laugh.
I choose to laugh.
Love Forever& Always,
Me
