It Is Impossible Says Your Morose Self

It is impossible, your morose self says. 
Do not try it. 
You will fail.


Your joyful self laughs at morose's silliness. 
We can! 
She says.
We do! 
We will! 
Let's start this second.

But wait, sad sack morose self says. 
Do I not get a say?


You already did, joyful self reminds him.
Usurping him in every way.

Thank God!

Sometimes there is a battle between my morose and joyful selves; but sometimes morose does win-

That is when you need to run naked into the tulip garden, and throw yourself down into one, soaking up all the sun's love you can.
