Happiness

Heaven can be found right where you are.

Angels surround us; open up your eyes!

People you have come to know - you need to prize.

Parents, siblings and friends - one may be your guiding star!

Inner peace, once discovered, brings an outer glow.

Nurturing relationships, your peace will grow,

Enriching your life and the lives of those you know!

Soon life's meaning will be so clear to see -

Sparkling, a guiding star to others YOU will be!

A prize winner for sure. Listen! Money is not happiness. A man with 6 million is no happier than a man with 5 million. Hardy harr, harr, harr. Love daver

This is so beautiful my dear friend, Andrea! I agree with you on the image of happiness. I also had an entry in this contest, and I was thinking almost the same thing before but, i changed coz another idea popped up, "health" which I thought was the very core:)). but really, this is is the Best Meaning. I'll FAVE it and TYSM! BIG CONGRATULATIONS! May I also Greet you a Very Merry Christmas with your family! Wishing you the Best this Holiday Season! Loving Wishes and hugs,Leonora
