But I'm going to try ... Here goes:
Happiness is
Crunching some dry leaves
Kissing a baby
Wrapping a gift
Seeing an old friend
Eating some chocolate
Smoothing a rift
Happiness is
Hearing some good news
Feeling a calm heart
Seeing some light
Being with family
Building a snowman
My bed at night
But most of all, happiness is
A state of being, a feeling of trust, an exercise of faith.
'Happiness is the object and design of our existence; and will be the end thereof, if we pursue the path that leads to it"
Joseph Smith
FYI I'm with my parents right now. My mom is doing really, really well. Thank you for your prayers, your cranes, your well wishes.
