No, I’m not bipolar—I wasn’t grumpy yesterday, either, just grumping—quite happily, actually. But today is different.
You know there are some days when the sun is maybe not really shining, and you can’t really think of a reason, but all of a sudden it comes upon you that you sure-as-heaven are happy. And then the sun agrees, and decides to shine, and the wind blows bird-songs and a baby smiles at you and a red shawl walks past. And you know you are madly, irrationally delighted to be alive.
“Rejoice in the Lord always; again I will say, Rejoice! Let your reasonableness be known to everyone. The Lord is at hand.” [exclamation point and bold added]
Then again, maybe it’s not irrational. Maybe there’s a Reason for joy beyond reason.
