To the sorrowful heart,
Bright things turn to dark,
Laughter turns to taunts,
Dreams into hopelessness.

Press life under the lens of joy,
and all of the darkness, taunts, and hopelessness will reveal their true light.

Just something that describes what a happy mindset can do for a pained heart. Always helped me, hope it can do the same for someone else.
