Happiness
Happiness is the meaning and purpose of life.
An emotion desired by all,
mans great aim in life.
A state of being only you can create.
Don't wait on it from others or expect it from fate.
Happiness wont find you,
for you have to make it.
You choose to create, to spread and partake it.
An inner state of well being,
a sanction in life.
Appreciating what you have,
even your troubles and strife.
Our troubles help us build the character we are,
even the ones that seem so bizarre.
Hard to find but impossible to expect,
it takes lots of giving and time to reflect.
Make what we say, do and think all in tune,
for this life we have been given, ends far too soon.
Whatever our beliefs for beyond this existence,
don't dwell on the years, face with persistence
