Happiness is elusive for some. The pursuit can tire one out.
One day you might catch it. The next day it is gone.
It slipped away while you weren’t looking.
Some build a temple for it and bolt the doors.
The constant need for validation can wear it down.
Thin and fragile, it can dissipate.
Some say it is a choice. A decision to make it be.
No pursuit needed.
There is no universal definition of its specifics.
It’s just a general feeling.
Happiness has many enemies. Among them: Jealousy and Rage.
These are the most aggressive.
Faced with adversity, Happiness can shrink away.
It must stay tethered to a well-braided rope.
