Happiness.

Goldfinch60



Throughout our lives we have dreams,

Those times that we want to come our way

Times that would make us so happy,

Some do come true, but many do not.

I know in my life though I know,

I know I can be happy if no dreams come true,

As all that happiness needs

Is an appreciation of life itself.

      Thumbs up, Andy - extract the good bits, discard the bad.
      Hopefully sometime in the (probably very distant) future everyone will be capable of having enough of the good bits to enjoy.....

        Thank you Dave.
        Yes there will be enough 'good bits' for everybody to enjoy.

            This simple and true happiness has been ignored by so many. Reading yours make me happier.
