A thought on happiness

Perhaps happy isn’t something your life can just be. A life can’t be defined by happy. Maybe your life can be just improved by large amounts of happy things, or worse by lack of. Because life will always have it’s share of unhappy in it. These things don’t waver, they just get easier with the amount of happy in your life. Happy is making your favorite smile happen. Happy is being embraced by those who waited for you for so long. Happy is taking a deep breath and realizing you survived. Happy is driving everywhere to get nowhere just because you never want the moment to end. Happy might not be something life is, but it is what I am.
