Happiness

I knew it was possible – it had to be, for I witnessed other people having it.

I kept feeling downtrodden and smothered, yet bought into the messages it was my “misperceiving.”

I was a “Debbie Downer” if I felt disatisfied.

But now, after having clearly identified things I thought would make me happy (and just how they would seem), I’ve actually happened upon a community where I have – without extra effort – moments of this untamed feeling.
