The older I get the more I realize that happiness can't be found in physical things, worldly things, temporal things. This world offers us so many illusions of happiness; so many false paths it can be totally confusing. People are so lost. Yes, I mean lost when it comes to happiness. They live their life in vanity; always seeking never finding. Solomon said it best "all is vanity"
How true, how sad.
That leaves us with the burning question; Where can happiness be found?
I have found only one answer that rings true, abiding, and eternal; love. It sounds simplistic. It sounds almost corny, but it is nonetheless true. Love gives us everything that we strive for. It fulfills us in ways that nothing else can. It lifts us up when we are beat down by life. It can make us cry. It can make us laugh. It can make us dance. It can also stop us dead in our tracks. Love gives us strength, Love gives us purpose.
In other words, Love is Perfect!
Happiness is found in the laughter of our precious children(love), in the eyes of that special someone(Love), and in knowing God (LOVE).
Thank God for Love, thank God for the key to happiness.
