~ Let It Be ~

Let it be.........

Real happiness does not come
from the fulfillment of every desire.

You can chase an endless chain of wishes and desires,
and still manage to be unhappy.

So how ......

and when does happiness come?
It comes, quite simply,
when you allow it.
Though your life may be filled
with challenges and difficulties,
still you can be genuinely happy.

Whether you are close
to reaching your goals,
or far away
or already beyond them,
real happiness is always close at hand.

The world and its culture may convince you
that you need this or that
in order to find happiness.

Yet in truth,
you need nothing other than to let it be.

Instead of waiting
or longing
or searching
for a reason to be happy,
create for yourself a way to be happy.

Something as simple as a smile
can get you started,
and that's something you can do right now.

Let go of the notion that you must grasp for
or struggle
to attain happiness,
and simply let it be.

That can instantly make all the difference in the world
