I don’t have to fight or snatch
Someone’s happiness
I don’t need to steal someone’s happiness
Happiness is the flavour of my soul
How do I get in touch with my happiness?
Practice a little contentment
Don’t hold on to grievances
Or cling on to regrets
Recalling old incidents
Of hurt & disdain
Is like eating stale food
Then why feed on stale thoughts
And fetid bygones?
Bury the hatchet
Let your life move on to fresh terrain
Of sunshine in rain
Count your blessings
Name them one by one
Think of all that God has done
Then do a good turn to someone
Feel content
Discontentment is a disease
Accept your present challenge
As result of your past karma
Tackle it with dharma
Forgive, forget, reset your mind
Distribute happiness, contribute happiness
Dole out and donate happiness
Serve happily
Bless those that give you unhappiness
With happiness
Happiness is the alchemist of the soul
Neither bought nor sold.
