Life is full of joy and suffering simultaneously. Don't feel guilty for laughing when others are hurting. If you can help, help. If you can't, live fully anyway. Laugh for those who can't. Savor what you have. Live harder in memory of those you've lost.

Little things that make me smile: compliments on my dancing, freedom to dress how I like, discovering new bloggers, music videos, London at 4am, rare tube conversations, surprising people with my music taste, my camera phone, guilt-free cute-guy spotting, and forgotten songs resurfacing on shuffle.

Happiness boils down to fulfilling your wants, not some arbitrary set of "needs" defined by society. Ignorance is bliss, but infinite knowledge might be too. There's a miserable middle ground most of us occupy. More thinking required.
