What is happiness?
Happiness is a rainy day.
Happiness is the windows down and the stereo up.
Happiness is an ocean shore in North Carolina.
...A sunrise and a cup of coffee...A convertible Mustang and Billy Joel.
Happiness is a good book & cup of tea.
Happiness is Denny’s at 3am.
Happiness is slow dancing on a frozen pond.
...A campfire, a guitar, and 30 friends singing at the top of their lungs.
Happiness is an authentic Italian restaurant and a Billy Joel & Elton John concert.
Happiness is new friends that seem like old ones...The Blue Mountains and road trips...
...An old pontoon boat and a muddy lake...A four-wheel drive truck and 3 feet of snow.
Happiness is laughing uncontrollably... Playing tag on horseback... Sleeping in.
Happiness is creating something no one’s ever heard...Singing harmony, and dashboard drumming.
Happiness is swimming in the dark, falling asleep in the boat, waking up and driving home at 6am.
...Corny musicals... a cappella duets... Diet Coke... Slippers.
Happiness is a homecoming football game...A high school dance... A teddy bear that smells like him.
Happiness is my great-grandmother’s piano... An old barn and a pool table.
Happiness is baking cookies and wrapping presents.... decorating the Christmas tree and a handmade nativity set.
...A can of deluxe mixed nuts... A scrapbook full of priceless memories.
Happiness is candlelight and a bubble bath... Sugar-free chocolate...
Happiness is a pair of old cowboy boots and horse that’s your best friend...
It’s your brother’s arms around you when you’re crying... And thinking that it was worth all the years of fighting... It’s sitting on his bed and telling him you’ve got a crush on his best friend...
Happiness is an country dirt road and an old farmhouse... A chinese restaurant... A church family...
...Watching Doctor Who and playing Quelf... Fourth of July & Superbowl...
Happiness is being independent...The Sydney Opera House... And saying ‘No Worries’... It’s finding out who you are... And making changes along the way...
Happiness is a moment... No matter how close or far away...
When you realize that God is good... And every breath is reason enough to smile.
So tell me, what is happiness to you?
