    Happiness

     I like myself just the way I am, and I'm happy
    No, wait a minute, I could stand to lose a few pounds
    Then I'd be happy
    Then again, if I had more money to pay off my debts
    I'd be even happier and life would be great
    But then again, if my family could all just get along
    I'd just be so happy that I'd have a permanent grin
    However if all the countries of the world could live in peace
    Everything in my life would be perfectly happy

    Scratch all the above...except for one thing:
    I like myself just the way I am, and I'm happy.

    This is my favorite. Don't know how many times I have thought this same thing. I've learned to like myself just the way I am, And I'm happy , too. :) TS

    Poetry is not a turning loose of emotion, but an escape from emotion.

    T. S. Eliot (1888-1965) American-English poet and playwright.
