QUEST FOR HAPPINESS
FROM MY ROOFTOP GARDEN, 02 DECEMBER 2016, MY PICTURE (c)
In our quest for happiness
Much grief and suffering
And
Sometimes, even horrible situations we
Have to overcome
Because
Searching for happiness is like searching for gold
Where
We have to dig a lot of dirt
Just
To find a tiny morsel of it
But
It worthwhile
For
The more toiling we do the more joy we feel
When
Finally, we hold it into the palms of
Our hands:
When happiness, at last,
Floods our heart!
(c) Demetrios Trifiatis
