the day i learned to be happy was the day when i realized that i was content with myself.
it entailed a moment of reckoning, of acknowledgement, of peace. no words were said but the intensity of the feeling was overwhelming. from an inconspicuous bauble, it turned into a radiant gem - shining, sparking, blinding all reason.
to be at peace is to be one with thy self. to be honest. to be true.
nurture your friendship with others, but more importantly... nurture your friendship with your soul.
