Here's to a long life and a merry one
A quick death and an easy one
A pretty girl and an honest one
A cold beer and another one!

Merry
What does it take to be merry? Is it a state of mind? A feeling? A thought? Does it take time and energy? Is it something that we need to concentrate on or does it just "happen" to us?
Being merry comes from deep within. It starts at our core and manifests itself in many different ways. Being joyful isn't forced or calculated. It is a natural way to be. Maybe things are not going completely in your favor lately. Maybe you didn't get the present you wanted. Maybe you didn't get to see a loved one for the holiday. Maybe you even ended up not being healthy for the family party. Although this can put a damper on how you feel, ultimately it can not take the merry out of you unless you let it. So remember to keep your head held high, your thoughts in a positive direction and know that when you are merry within, you truly are blessed!
