Count your blessings
There is a tendency to see only the negative in our lives, especially when there seems to be an overwhelming amount of reasons to be so this year. Take a moment to think about the good in your life, the things for which you are grateful. You may surprise yourself...I hope you surprise yourself. Prose or poetry - nonfiction, please.
