Today is as good a day to be happy as any, so be.
Talk to who puts an upside down rainbow on your lips.
Listen to a song that makes you move your hips.
Play a game you enjoy.
Watch an old favourite movie that brings joy.
Dance, just dance, any move will do.
Jump as high as your legs will take you.
Sing like only your heart is listening.
Create something – a letter, a drawing, a new language, an idea, a painting.
Today is as good a day to be happy as any, so be.

A litmus test
Matthew 9:9-13
As Jesus passed on from there, he saw a man called Matthew sitting at the tax office; and he said to him, “Follow me.” And he rose and followed him. And as he sat at table in the house, behold, many tax collectors and sinners came and sat down with Jesus and his disciples. And when the Pharisees saw this, they said to his disciples, “Why does your teacher eat with tax collectors and sinners?” But when he heard it, he said, “Those who are well have no need of a physician, but those who are sick. Go and learn what this means, `I desire mercy, and not sacrifice.’ For I came not to call the righteous, but sinners.”
Homily:
Those who did not believe in Christ, always found something to complain about.
Those who believed in Christ, always found something to rejoice about.
It stands true in our lives.
Those who believe in us, always find something to rejoice about.
Those who do not believe in us, always find something to complain about.
