DON'T LET HAPPINESS BEFUDDLE YOU

Don’t let happiness befuddle you. You know what I mean. Don’t question it, like is this real? What have I done to deserve this? Can I trust what I’m feeling? Instead, just snap it up! Claim it for yourself. Allow yourself to embrace the feeling of happiness. Whether it comes from something big, like a new house or new job. Or from something more basic like being happy it didn’t rain last night and ruin your plans for camping. Or just being happy to have a job, food to eat, a place to sleep. Or maybe just feeling happiness in a rainbow, the softly falling snow, or a cup of hot coffee. Whatever, just don’t let happiness befuddle you. Embrace it. Enjoy it. Happiness is yours for the taking. Find it in the big and the small, the giving and the taking, in all of life, in every day. Embrace the joy of just being. And, if for some reason you find it impossible to find one thing to be happy about at this time, then pretend as if…behave as if…believe as if…until you do.
