Hmm, I hate to weigh down the pleasantness of this thread, but I was actually thinking of how I myself have been accepting of happiness lately.
On Wednesday my wife is getting an abortion, this would have been my 2nd child. My first just turned one. I won't burden everyone with the details, but I don't want her to have this abortion at all. Not in the least. I keep thinking about the baby.
Anyway, how this pertains to this thread: I believe in the pleasures of the simple things, the sun coming out after not seeing it for days makes me happy. Seeing people in love, etc, you get the point. So now, instead of these things making me happy, I instead think of how my baby will never be able to enjoy these good things in this life. And... that turns out to make me feel pretty bad.
Sorry for the weightiness of this.
P.S. Xiangsu, is that a Pearl Jam avatar?
