My Quest

For a long while, I’ve worried about my need for happiness.

I formulated a saying in my head “you only earnestly seek what you don’t have” and it worries me…because it implies I’m unhappy.

Am I?

I really don’t think so.

I started a happiness challenge on the 13th of May. I tagged it 100 days of happiness.

Somewhere along the line, I changed it to lifetime of happiness.

The 20th day of August would have been my 100 days…but why stop at 100?

I must say, it hasn’t been an easy challenge but I’m proud to announce that I could count with one hand the number of times I’ve let a sad moment linger too long…

…and with one finger, the number of times I’ve cried sad tears.

With intentionality as my key, I forge on.

I yearn for happiness.

And I hope that the following quote by Rumi applies; “what you seek is seeking you”.
