Happiness Is (Acrostic)

Happiness is what you take away from your life as good. All things must have a plus and a negative to survive. Prophecy says God allowed evil to exist, destroy it he could. Pure goodness without evil will someday arrive. I wish that only positive things were plausible now. Never to know hunger, pain, any suffering any more. Each of us would never know sadness, you say Wow! Since there would be no negative, how would it score? Since only joy existed, we would not know of contentment. I do not think god had this planned for us while on Earth. Salvation is yours of worth, your release from this abatement

Well stated, Cecil! I think you have to have experienced some of the negative things in life to appreciate the positive. In that respect, this is a very intuitive work. The last two lines sum up your thoughts in a compelling manner. LOVE it! Carolyn ps, left a message for you on the Classmates site.
