Happiness


Happiness is complicated.
It’s superficial. Laughing to stave off pain.
It’s genuine. Being grateful, content with the simple.

Happiness is both unexpected and the result of search.
But how is happiness possible?

Happiness. Don’t give up the search.
Like a sliver of gold amongst quartz.
Work, people you’re close to, long walks…

Share your happiness. Where do you find it?
What motivates you to get up and sift through sadness?
And what are the things that make it worth it?

Mine is hope. Hope that even though life can suck…
God is always there to guide me and give me joy, peace and rest.

Happiness.
