I think that to be in a state of being that is happy is different then to feel happy.
Those moments of embodying happy are found in gratitude and appreciation. They are found in the joy of a night by the fire. In the understanding that there is so much more... and you will never know it all... and yet it’s ok.
Being happy comes with truly knowing that one is not okay. And that’s okay. Okay? That it is ok to not be the best the brightest and the funniest. It is ok to not get that role, to perfect that dance, or be the best singer. It is okay to not be ok.
Being happy comes with knowing that love doesn’t need you to be extraordinary and that those that love you know all of you and that they love you all the more for it...
