 Ways to be Happy

When I was young and knew not much,

Happiness for myself I sought.

For me to be happy was such

An uncertainty, that a lot

Of time, unhappy, yes I was.

But as older and wiser I

Grew, I'd learn that happiness does

Be mine in certain ways, and why?

Because happiness I would seek

Would be for others, not for me.

Then something happened, not unique,

That happy I would also be.

So I do hope for each new day

I make someone happy some way.
