Choose your life. Choose joy. Two years ago today, twenty minutes after Dad passed, I was kneeling next to him bedside, singing Monsters by James Blunt. And that moment still reminds me how precious our time is, how much we waste fighting over things that don't even matter. You say goodbye to a person, but the lessons just keep showing up. For me, that means letting go of hurt, choosing joy as Dad taught. Before you scroll away, think of. Someone you love. Make the call. Say the words. Give the hug. Tell them what they mean to you. Don't wait for everything to be perfect to feel joy. We don't know how much time we have left, but we have this moment. Let yourself feel some joy, even if everything isn't okay. Choose your life. Choose joy. To chase the monsters away.
