Passion Party #108 - The Pursuit of Happiness

We have not been given the right to happiness.
We have been given the right to the pursuit of happiness.

I know that happiness is an emotion
it comes and goes
I can experience it, but cannot hold on to it.

It is ephemeral,
somewhere on the emotional continuum
between contentment
and ecstatic

Being with you makes me happy.
Working hard all week
so that I can have a free weekend with you
makes me happy.

Today is the day
I tap into my passion for life
and continue
my pursuit of happiness.
