Happiness

Smile.

Life is truly about happiness, not wealth or fame or power. You don't need to be smart, articulate, rich, funny, pretty or creative, you just need to smile. Happiness is not about pasting a smile on your face no matter what the situation, its about feeling, with everything in your being. You need to cry to be able to smile when things get better. Things really suck sometimes, unbearably so, but every time something sucks, it has room to improve.
     Look around, look at the way the light dances on everything, at the detail in your hands, the delicate specks of dust that roam around, the warm comfy bed you get to sleep in, these are all things that are awesome. Who decided that a small waist was pretty or that an industrial park was ugly? You did. Until now, anything can be beautiful if you look from the right angle. Beauty doesn't mean looking nice, it means compelling. Hurricanes aren't nice, but they capture your attention and hold you spellbound, that's beauty. When you open your eyes, maybe tilt your head to the left, you will see it. So look, listen and most importantly feel, because if you can feel, you can understand and understanding is the same as loving.

So go do something nice!
