A Happiness PoemWritten by David Leonhardt
Continued from page 1
The feelings I sense and senses I feel For keyboard and screen remain far too real. My ears and my nose remain at rest. My cheeks and hairline are doing their best. But if this happiness poem could make my mouth smile, My face would forever dress up in style.

from depression, Christmas season only makes it worse. Another reason is belief that Christmas has become too commercial. In fact, over 50 percent of people polled said that they think Christmas should be toned down a bit. “It definitely has become too commercial with people putting out decorations two months in advance, but spirit behind it has generally stayed same for most people” declared Sarah Geiger. A third common reason why Christmas isn’t favored by some is that there is often a feeling that everyone else is having a better time than you. The constant belly-full-of-jelly laughs around company water cooler may have you thinking, “Did I miss something? Am I being left out? What’s going on?!” Other more common dislikes are constant money spending, overeating, and Christmas parties. Christmas time can also remind people of a lost one, which could make anyone, have a miserable Christmas time. All of these horrible things that tag along with Christmas could make even Satan cry a tear of sympathy for people who just can’t see joy Christmas can bring. It’s a shame not everyone can be happy during this time of year, but being depressed on Christmas is completely understandable. These poor saps seem to miss Christmas bliss train every year, but who knows; this year maybe, just maybe, they’ll catch it.
