Today, tomorrow and every year
Now, then and every moment
For if, we learn to love, care and share.

To touch our life with joyful silence.
Happiness will come

But attainment of certain mental state,
And Unconditional love is a real possession.”

I was looking for the purpose of life;

Happiness is not in wealth or splendor.
Happiness is inside me,
in my mind,
in my thoughts,
It is in my perception of the world.”

I couldn’t help but be in awe.”
