I try and find joy everywhere I can and then spread it further. A person needs hobbies, toys, trinkets, silly little things to enjoy, and people it enjoy those things with if you don’t want to lose yourself to depression. Bake brownies, buy some Lego, join a local photography club, go to a furry rave, join the elderly at a library event, pick up an instrument, treat yourself to some ice cream, take a class at a local community college to learn something new and get out of the house, compliment the person standing next to you at the bus stop. We’re all alive and living on this planet. We’re all in this together. That’s why I became a communist to begin with, there’s more that I love in this world then hate.

Does that mean sacrificing all your money and time you have to trivial pursuits? No, that puts you right back where you started, but you need happiness and treats in your life if you don’t want to go insane.
