W is for Will

Will you, won’t you, will you, won’t you, will you join the dance?
Will you, won’t you, will you, won’t you, won’t you join the dance?

— Lewis Carroll, “The Mock Turtle’s Song” from Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland

When I’m depressed, I’m more likely to feel that I don’t have any choices in life; I’m stuck here, and it sucks to be me.

Today is not a day of depression. (It’s not quite a mania, but it’s close.) I feel like I have many choices, and I do. If nothing else, I am choosing to believe that. It’s an act of the will.
