Don't run out of things to be happy about. Look forward to breakfast. Think cereal, bananas and cold milk. Dream of cute boys who touch your hands like they're the most precious things in the world. Remember not to push them away. Listen to your body. Join up the dots on your cheek, realise that you're more than just skin and bones. You are also a mess of bumps, fissures and acne scars. Recognise your sadness but don't run out of things to be happy about. You still have friends, you still have family. Smile down at the stretch marks on your stomach. Lift your head and pretend to kiss the sky.

You are human and maybe you won't be happy. Maybe happiness is just a concept, an idea.
But you can be happier than you are now.

Don't run out of things to be happy about.
