Stay Happy by Dakota Wint

I was thinking today

That we’re all gonna die one day

And I was thinking of all the things that I take for granted

And sometimes I forget how blessed I am

And I just wanted to say that if you’re ever feeling down

Truly take a moment out of your day to think of everything that you cherish

Go squeeze someone you love

put your heart and soul into that hug

and don’t let go until you both can’t breathe

Go make a friend with someone completely random

Hold the door open for someone

and if they don’t even acknowledge you

just smile

never stop smiling

And if you’re ever feeling lost

take a chance

If you’ve got nowhere to go any road will get you there

Dance

and sing

Like no one’s watching

If you like someone

tell them

Laugh at the stupid jokes only you and your best friend find funny

Laugh until your stomach hurts

And if you’ve ever been mean to anyone

And never got the chance to say sorry

Apologize

Life’s too short to waste your time being a jerk

And if people are mean to you for no reason

Screw ‘em

Be yourself because nobody else can be

And if you want to cry

cry

Let it out

Expectation is the root of all heartache

The best thing to do is to stop thinking

And to just let things happen

And if the world ever makes you feel small

Look up at the stars and know someone somewhere is doing the same thing

and just because today might’ve been a terrible day

doesn’t mean tomorrow won’t be the best day of your entire life

you just have to wake up and get there

We learn from experience that we never really learn anything from experience

We never know what’s gonna happen

and that’s the thing about life

You just have to breathe every moment in like it’s your last

& never look back

& never regret

& always stay happy

Forever my favorite poem and video - Stay Happy
