i cannot be afraid to be happy.
rather, i cannot be afraid to feel happy and afraid to be joyful
and when i have joy, i cannot be so anxious waiting for the joy to "go away" that i don't enjoy being "in" joy.
i will not let him take my joy.
i will not live in worry and thus not live.
i will choose joy. and if the other shoe drops, then i will joyfully catch it.
but i will not wait to be disappointed.
in any day that my God has made,
i will rejoice
and be glad
in it.
