when happy comes, awareness changes. things become more clearly defined.
when happy comes, it's not with a wave of acting happy. nor even does it have that much to do with the outward. happy steals into the heart and curls up in a comfy chair and relaxes. it's not busy nor is it's purpose to show others. happy sits and waits for the owner to come and enjoy the peacefulness of what is. it grabs a blanket and is willing to share. happy comes in when the door is left open and it lights a fire and warms up the heart.
when happy comes, it's not with fanfare but with contentment. nothing necessarily happens to make it come. as a matter of fact, it has been known to come on some pretty ordinary and mundane days. or, rather it seems to come on those days. i think that it really has stolen in sooner, but is finally noticed and appreciated on those days. the warmth is finally appreciated.
when happy comes the whole world changes but not one thing has changed. happy changes perception and causes the hostess to realize that in the midst of life there is always a warm place in her heart. she finds an oasis to run to when the world is unfair.
happy isn't work. or actions. happy just is. happy is an action that occurs deep within. when happy comes it is often mistaken by others as different things. because when happy comes, it frees the hostess to risk and give in her outer life because her inner life knows happy lives there. and never leaves. happy never leaves. ever. sometimes the owner may block off that area of the heart. or renovate and forget to notice it's presence. but happy does not abandon. it sticks. especially in bad times. though others try to get the hostess to kick it out in times of drama trauma or dire circumstances. happy never flees. happy has no fear. none. happy knows that every day has some good and so does every person. happy looks at these things. these moments. and grows larger. happy feeds on good. and like a ravenous pet pig, happy looks for good in order to grow. to become bigger. to warm the heart more. to be able to see more moments of good.
happy lingers in the heart even when unattended. waiting to share it's news of good. but it swells when tended to regularly. and after awhile becomes a trusted and most valuable friend. able and willing to face real life with love and kindness. with courage and commitment. happy is humble but definitely not weak.
when happy comes reality becomes...more real. it's easier to distinguish between mean and kind. no matter what the gestures or words. it's easier to be wise.
happy. comes.
happy. has. come.
oh the simple pleasure of resting with it.
blessings.
