what is happiness...
could it be a tree that's filled with peaceful greenery or that flower with purplish, pinkish, silky perfumy feel. could it be the music that's sweetly meandering in your uncovered balcony. or could it be the sun with a wide and infectious smile that brightens that dark, far, blue sky. or a beach with magic waves that's constantly rolling by for your eyes to cry.
could it be a heart that is filled with love and light, could it be that person who understands all the time. could it be a friend who cares all the time. could it be a kind Samaritan who gives a hand when no one else can. could it be a gift that grants peacefulness and calm. could it be a kind word, a kind deed from a gentle hand. what is happiness, really.
could it be you, could it be us together acting as one. could it be harmony in thoughts and presence in spite of absence when you are gone. what is happiness, that very elusive emotion of the heart.
could it be God, could it be success, could it be love ones...could it be that which no one else can understand...what is happiness, that utmost goal of our lives.
maybe happiness is when you no longer needed it in order to live. when you no longer needed to cry when you don't have it. when you no longer felt blue when you think about it. then simply happiness is... when you no longer care to climb that mountain and to add roses to your garden...and to let all things as it be, as it was, and as it is...that is happiness i think in my own world and in my own space :)
