"Happiness walks on busy feet".

"The foolish person seeks happiness in the distance; the wise person grows it under his feet."
James Oppenheim
"Happiness often sneaks in through a door you didn't know you left open."
John Barrymore

The best remedy for those who are afraid, lonely or unhappy is to go outside, somewhere where they can be quiet, alone with the heavens, nature and God. Because only then does one feel that all is as it should be and that God wishes to see people happy, amidst the simple beauty of nature

Happy as something unimportant
and free as a thing unimportant.
As something no one prizes
and which does not prize itself.
As something mocked by all
and which mocks at their mockery.
As laughter without serious reason.
As a yell able to outyell itself.
Happy as no matter what,
as any no matter what.
Happy
as a dog’s tail.
Ooh la la ... swishy swishy goes the dog's tail as happy as can be. Thanks for sharing Jasmine! I swear Miss Swir's poem brought a smile to my face :)
