Joy is the kind of friend you always want by your side. She's happy to be there to cheer you on as you run your first 5K or give you a high five when you finally get a B in that class you struggled with all semester. She's vibrant and quirky and a whole lot of fun. She's almost perfect it's just too bad that she lives in your head.  Speaking of your head, there sure are a lot of emotions in there. Sure, people might find it a little off-putting if Joy was the only one who expressed herself but why do those other emotions have to be so vocal. Like last month, when you were watching that in-flight movie on the way back from vacation. They played that movie about the old dog, you know how it ends, and of course, you ended up in tears as you sat between an awkward high school kid and an uptight businessman. Not good timing. You would have welcomed the calming hand of Joy in that moment. Then again, altitude does strange things to people and at that same moment, the businessman seemed to be wiping suspiciously at something in his eye. Hey, just goes to show, whatever it is we're feeling we're not alone! Well, all of those emotions will have their moment in due time. For now, it's time to celebrate everyone's favorite emotion. Hey, don’t feel bad Sadness, you're great on rainy days and while reading tragic romance novels. You'll be the ray of sunshine as you flit around the costume party this year. This ensemble features the bright yellow dress from the movie and Joy's funky blue locks. She works hard, it's time she got out of your head for awhile!
