How Would You Know What Happy Is

Keeping Score Of Old Scores And Scars, Getting Even And One-upping, Always Makes You Less Than You Are.

When Things Are Bad, We Take Comfort In The Thought That They Could Always Get Worse. And When They Are, We Find Hope In The Thought That Things Are So Bad They Have To Get Better.

I Haven't A Clue About The Biology Or The Psychology Involved When A Person Dissolves Into Tears, But It Is Quite Fascinating To Note What Turns Them On. There Are Wives Who Can Cascade Over A Late Husband Or A Burned Dinner, And Equally Pour Tears Of Joy Over A New Bonnet Or A Renovated Bathroom.... A While Ago I Took A Ship Back From Europe. Amid The Tumbling Confetti ... I Found Myself Misty-eyed Watching A Young Lady Waving A Tearful Farewell To Her Boyfriend On The Dock. I Couldn't Figure Out If I Was Crying At Her Plight, Or In Delight That He Wasn't Coming Along With Us.

How To Get Taken: Spend Most Of Your Time Making Sure You're Not.
