happiness is a state of mind.

prash said this while we were walking to school today on a dreary monday morning, "you look happier these days." well and i responded with, "do i really?" and the gang chorused the affirmative.

well i guess i really am quite happy, despite things not turning out the way i wanted them to, the fact that i still haven't quite acheived some of the small goals i've set myself, and some minor hiccups along the way. i thank God for everything that he's given me - even though i honestly don't think i deserve it. i thank God for giving me the most precious things and people that i never dreamed i could possess. i thank Him for giving me so much joy and meaning in my life even though i strayed. You alone are my strength and my shield.

p.s. thankyou guys, for offering to bring me to the doctor's, for giving me medicine, for boiling soup for me. you guys are the truest friends i could ever have.
