To catch The Happiness before it hides

"Life is the journey not the destination."

An angel told me once the happiness is the movement, the journey, the in between.

Then I took a walk and thought to myself.


If life is a wave. Happiness is a movement of the buoy.

If life is a waterfall. Happiness is the flight of a droplet.

If life is wind. Happiness is a falling leaf.

If life is a river happiness is in the flow of waters not stagnated pools of calm.

If life is a lifetime, happiness is in years and dacades

If life is a year, happiness is in weeks and days

If life is a day, happiness is in hours minutues andseconds

If life is a millisecond, happiness is an illusion in the mind


Meaning: To catch the happiness before it hides

The poem was triggered by a tweet highlighting "life is a journey not the destination". Ha ha ha, however I Lied. I really didn't take a walk, (Poets are allowed to lie in the context of poem) though it took me on a thought journey (Maybe I did not lie after all).


Now you know what I thought and It really is difficult to catch the happiness if the life is just in milliseconds. However we have to go through milliseconds to go into seconds. So, what is happiness? Is it an illusion of mind?


Evidence suggest so.


Then what about other things, that we see and feel? Well, that is for you to think about.


You can find more about time in my book and articles and poems throughout the blog. Happy hunting !
