Happiness.
Nine letters, yet never fully reached.
We underestimate it.
The little things; we miss.
The big things; we want.
We all have it.

It's true.

There would be no sadness without happiness.
No happiness without sadness.

How can one word explain everything you are feeling?

It can't.

Impossible.
To me.
To have one feeling.

Today, for one reason or another, the sadness is winning.
For now.
But it will change.
It always does.
Because sadness cannot live without happiness.
The sun will shine.

Smile.
Know.
  Be happy.
   Relax.

    Just be.
