Happiness is...
Starting each dawn
With a bright smile,
Notwithstanding
Disgruntled faces here and there.
Greeting people hello
With a friendly wave,
And, of course, a smile;
Friend or stranger, it doesn't matter.
Playing with your children
In the backyard, out in the park.
Taking the dogs out for a walk.
Giving of yourself
To God, and to nature.
Complete detachment
From negative influences
And toxic people.
Surrounding yourself
With people who genuinely love
And care about you.
Doing whatever you enjoy doing
To the best of your ability.
Loving yourself
Inside out, outside in;
Warts and all.
