Happiness

[tonywalt]

Well, my friend
you have got to
create it
invent it
reinvent it
choose it
work it
revise it
hatch it up
hunt it down
then you have to lose it
and then
find it all over again

the gods make plenty of happiness,
hell, they give it away in bundles,
but
few people have it
so be on the watch
when they offer it to you.

It is a beautiful struggle

and the only one there is.

Thanks. There's much to be positive about. For instance, today I saved a little bird stuck in a hole. Maybe I will save the whales some day - in the meantime I'm going to sip this martini

That was very kind, Tony, the bird was certainly happy. Saving the wales an other animals is more difficult. Just now they are killing more of those animals mink coats are made of because of corona.
