Other Ppl's Happiness

Not a poem [SHOCKER!] but I feel the need to express myself. Whenever I'm feeling down and out, or a little bit distressed, I feed positively off other people's happiness. I cannot begin to express the joy I feel for those who I appear to be happy. When surrounded by happiness and smiles I can't help but enjoy their happiness vicariously. It reminds me that sadness is just a temporary state of being that passes with time. Seeing other happy people let's me know that I to shall have my sheer happiness in due time. Whenever I have a bad day or two,the simple things, such as seeing an adorable picture of a happy couple or a couple holding hands on the train puts a big smile on my face, almost as if their joy is contagious. It's rare for me to be around positive people and not catch on to their positivity. It pisses me off when people who are feeling down feel the need to ruin other people's happiness, as if the whole world should revolve around the fact that they are sad. I feel that happiness is a wealth that should be shared as much as possible. So if you see me around and I appear to a little down and out, send a smile my way, I'd greatly appreciate it.
