Where Happiness Dwells


Not in the 'before...'
nor in the 'back when...'

Not in the 'if only...'
nor in the 'maybe when...'


Not in the past
nor in the future

but here in the present is
where happiness dwells.

The Gentle Path


Be kind to yourself.

This path that you've chosen
is full of twists and turns,
challenges and surprises
around every bend.

It is the hard path,
the uphill journey.
Each day a new chance
to fall
and to rise again.

Now you've come so far!
Just stop for a moment
and enjoy the view!

 Then move onward,
eyes fixed ahead,
following the light
with the wind in your hair
and a hop in your step.

And always,
be kind to yourself.

The Beacon


 On this earth
where sorrows abound
and hope is often
hardly found

a glimpse of light,
Love calls me on
where eyes can't see
somewhere beyond.

A simple guide
I long to be
to show the kindness
shown to me.
