Trouble is, happiness always seems to happen whenever my back is turned. I need to start learning to face in the right direction! :p

Yes indeed, “Happy” is a slippery word. Well put, Belinda

I like how you describe happiness as a hypothetical for some. Real nice 55 word poem Belinda.

“free-range yet fickle” – we pursue it like it’s a thing or a state of being we’ll eventually find and settle into, but we’re human, we’ll always meander in and out of happiness, but it’s not a goal or pot of gold, it’s one feeling of myriad.

i think being less critical may lead us there…or maybe just more grateful for what we have…nice 55.
