Happiness is a journey
A long way on the route
Of life and tribulations to stops
Happiness is a mentality
A state of mind of perception
Of what one thinks, in views held
Happiness is a philosophy
With what questions in rhetoric
And answers left to ponder, wonder
Why happiness is an angle of view
Is the cup half full or half empty
In context, in context, are you happy
Will the cup have to be full to be
Between then and now, and now
That we journey, what will it be for you
I especially resonate with "Happiness is a state of mind of perception".......so very true......
ReplyDelete..."what will it be for you." this is the key for me. happiness defined is different for each.
