Is it the way you feel when you see a butterfly? Perhaps, it is the feeling of time passing us by? Or could it be, shopping online? I know it can’t be meeting a deadline.
Happiness is an expensive commodity, It increases one’s life’s longevity. But happiness is also a priceless antique, Something desired greedily, And the poor folk’s possession of it the rich do critique.
Inside, one might ask themselves, ”Can happiness be bought?” ”Ofcourse not silly, it muse be taught”. Look inside yourself, and you will see, A vast space of eternity.
Close your eyes, no, really try! Kiss your negativity goodbye. Now fill this space up with light and with love, And you’ll be on your way to being as happy as a dove.
Go on now, but take your time, Maybe it helps if you think of a rhyme. Look at the world from inside out, And help others without a doubt.
Gather up your kindness and strength, Add a little politeness, it will take you a great length. Next align your head and your heart, But don’t throw away that dart.
Treat others kindly, as you would be treated. Never forget that people like to be greeted. As you go along with your day, Your chest will feel lighter along the way.
Smile and wave; and you will start to feel, The happiness inside you begin heal. Close your eyes and experience the peace, And in the silence your heart whispers it’s piece. "Thank you for making me feel better."

The first step in our journey, is to find happiness.
This poem addresses the question we often ask ourselves.
What is Happiness?
And more importantly, how do we obtain happiness?
Is it something we can buy ourselves from a supermarket or department store?
Perhaps it's something we can find online?
No.
We soon enough realise that we cannot buy ourselves happiness. Especially the kind that brings us inner peace.
To find happiness, however, we need to journey forth into the land of struggles and hardship. Here we realise two important things:
1. The things and the people in our lives who stick around in these times are loyal to us.
2. The things and the people who leave should never be allowed to return.
Bonus: 3. We have complete control over our happiness. We choose who to let in, who to stay, and who we want to kick out.
