Happiness I have decided is like the sun. 

There are moments when happiness rises within us and moments when it sets.  This happens daily in nature.  The sun comes up – sometimes bright, other days hiding behind the clouds.  Each night, it disappers with the rotating axis of Earth.  

It seems we want bright sunny days -365.  It dawned on me, if the sun doesn’t always appear in nature, why do we expect it in our everyday lives?  I think it is okay to feel happy sometimes and not so other times.  Maybe the place to feel most connected to the earth is when we are in touch with our true (rising and setting) nature — what if this was the new happiness ?!
