Thanks to our Friend for sending us this beautiful art
~*~
Realize that true happiness lies within you.
Waste no time and effort
searching for peace
and contentment
and joy
in the world outside.
Remember that there is no happiness
in having or in getting,
but only in giving.
Reach out.
Share.
Smile.
Hug.
Happiness is a perfume
you cannot pour on others
without getting a few drops on yourself.

I suspect
if everyone on earth could be real
for just a moment -
we'd find that all people are just alike -
having similar experiences
and similar reactions to those experiences -
we are all more alike than we are different -
and how important that is for all of us to know -
so we know we are not alone.
