Yes, I Will Be Most Happy

And you should be, too!

Story about this piece below:

This little monster is just doing what we all do - she moves through each day and keeps trying her best. She understands Happiness doesn’t come as naturally to her as it does to others and she may have to try harder than most. She’s been through it and it shows.

I chose to put a “Yes” in front of “I will be most happy” - I felt that having it there spoke loudly in regards to the idea just because she’s been wounded or scarred in the past, it doesn’t mean she’s weak. She holds dominance over her life and her goals, more so than anyone else and owns that.

I felt like the addition of “Yes” changed the entire message behind this piece. “Yes”, takes this piece from “I will be most happy” - which to me communicated “ I’m gonna try, and I may get there. Or maybe mostly get there at some point” to instead saying “I fucking got this”
