The Secret Of Happiness
If happiness is what I am looking forThere are no great mysteries for me to explore,
No oceans to swim or mountains to climb.
No searching until the ends of time.
Happiness is not found in what I possess
Nor does it lie on the road to success.
Having someone to love is great, that's for sure.
But it takes more than love for happiness to endure.
To have achieved my goals is a wonderful feeling
But that in itself is not that appealing.
The victory is mine, the race is won,
But without knowing happiness, I've only begun.
Happiness will be mine, because I now see
Just how easy attaining it really can be.
Whether I'm poor or whether I'm rich,
Young or old, it doesn't matter which.
Plain or pretty, skinny or fat,
Kind of heart or a low-down
Healthy, educated or i don't know
I will just be grateful for what I've got.
The more gratitude that I express
The more I'll enjoy each and every success.
All I need is to have the right attitude.
For happiness is the attitude of gratitude.
(An Original Poem by Mel Kaye)
How will you express gratitude for what you have?
