A War To Be Won
Happiness is victory
Though I won't win every battle
I will win the war.

United
We are at peace
when we stop wanting
We are happy
when we accept ourselves
Maybe we went wrong
when we thought we should be trying
to achieve anything else.
No doubt
there are many people hurting
And we hear about
many people getting hurt
Maybe we went wrong
when we thought life had a purpose
to struggle for.
Or is it life
can't contain true peace and happiness
Or not unles...

No Reason To Sigh
And so what if I'm empty inside!
Happiness still has a place here
There's certainly plenty of space here
for Joy to reside
That's what, if I'm empty inside.
And so what if I've nothing to lose!
With little worth keeping
There's more time for sleeping
Or whatever I choose
That's what if I've nothing to lose.
And so what if I've nothing to gain!
That's hardly an onus
Seems more like ...

What Lies Beyond Truth?
Today's blog is a poem (well, two poems actually) where there are two versions of the poem and I have not yet been able to settle my feelings about which version 'wins'. I feel like there should stay two versions of it.
Version 1 – Personal
If Life will be what it has to be,
And Death will come when it comes,
And all the moments that I breathe
Happiness still is mine to give myself...

Whatever You Do
If you don't like it how it is
Stop complaining.
Stop praying, start living
Stop hoarding, start giving
Stop wanting, start enjoying
Stop waiting, start playing
Stop asking, start finding
Start hoping, stop minding
Stop whatever you are doing
Start changing

Nature's Hug
Hmm-mmm-mmm
Humming along with the breeze
La la-la-la
Singing a song with the birds in the trees
Oh Oh-Oh-Oh
Floating along with the clouds
Ahh Ah-Ah-Ah
Feeling peaceful now.
Oooo Ooo-Ooo-Ooo
Seeing the beautiful sky
Tra la-la-la
Watching the birds as they fly by
Happiness is as easy as this
Nature’s hug, Nature’s kiss.
All, all of life, as easy as this.

Not Not Not
Life may not be perfect
But sadness isn’t worth it,
And no matter how bad it gets,
Or whatever the world may expect
I’m not done hoping yet.
I could weep, I could cry
But what would that buy?
Another moment of misery?
Or instead I could smile
And then at least I’d be lifted.
And life may not be great
But happiness shouldn’t wait
So no matter what
I’ll enjoy what I’ve got
I’m not ...
