Life is like a winding path surrounded
by flowers, butterflies, and delicious fruit, but many of us spend much
time looking for happiness around the next corner. We do not bend to
enjoy the happiness which is ours for the taking just at our feet.
In our desire to reach the “pot of
gold”, complete and lasting happiness, we all want to fill our lives.
We ignore anything which doesn’t seem worthy of such a large ambition,
or which can’t give us the whole thing all at once.
Happiness is all around us, but it often comes in small grain. When we gather it grain by grain, we soon have a basketful.
What small pieces of happiness surround me right now?
