Poems are very good. I have a book called 'Poem for the Day'. Today's (27th Jan, Mozart's birthday) poem is Jabberwocky, which I took the trouble to learn by heart. The back of the book says that, and I quote, "Medical research indicates that poetry reading is as good a cure for depression as pills", and even if it isn't, it's still a good thing to do. Try learning Jabberwocky, and going round the house reciting it in silly voices!
I think I''ll make that today's happiness tip. Tip: read poetry out loud. I won't issue one tip a day, but lots of tips mean that you get more choice.
