The Honesty of Happiness
So here comes happiness again, rolling up from the heart wearing nothing but a grin. It tumbles into town naked as a jay bird, unpretentious as can be, and as honest as the day is long.
It’s got nothing to prove, no point to make, no judgment at all, except to call a joke when it sees one. And to tell the truth, it tends to see one on just about every corner.
Some folks think it’s a simpleton, the way it overlooks the gravity of things and teeters on the edge of laughter all the time. But the fact is, it was born in joy and just never got over it. It calls things as it seems them, and mostly happiness sees things as beautiful, unparalleled, glistening and grand. That’s where the grin comes from, and why it spills so easily into laughter.
It is what it is. And don’t you just love it!
