Happiness is not a gift from God.
We have to pursue happiness every day.
Each and everyone of us
Pursue happiness in our own special way.

My happiness is seeing healthy children,
Laughing, playing and having such fun.
Not hearing about children in other lands,
Starving, then dying one by one.

Happiness is seeing a smile on faces,
As they struggle thru their daily life.
We know some of their hearts are heavy,
While they're dealing with every day strife.

My happiness is seeing lovers
As they stroll along hand in hand.
Maybe stealing a kiss or two,
Gee! ain't love grand?

The pursuit of happiness must be pursued.
It might help some if we pray.
We must see ourselves as others see us,
As we seek happiness each day.
