In pursuit of

Happiness

The word sits lightly on one's tongue, and leaves a smile with the final syllable. Yet it's something so elusive, often hard to attain and so fleeting when it deigns to delight one with its presence. Still we all strive to capture it, probably package it in see through bottles with pretty polka-dotted ribbons, at least my version looks like that ...

I've come to realize that really, happiness is all around us. It just depends on knowing where to look and what to see ..  My little bottles are filled with :


  • Music. Country, rock n roll, gospel. Sing me a tune and I'll tap my feet. 
  • Stories. Fiction, non-fiction. I'm a collector
  • Food. Gastronomic ecstasy
  • Awesome company. Late nights laughing till bellies ache
  • Love. Caring. Sharing
  • Stumbling upon Gratitude in the randomest things ... 
  • And this song :

Happiness is everywhere. Just depending on how we see things... whether we want to see it negatively.. or positively... everything is like a coin with two sides.

Always choose to see the happy side. I can't do it.. not yet.
