Choosing To Be Happy – No. 100

ptduffy Life January 28, 2016June 16, 2016

It started with 1
Then it became 2
As I continued to look
It became a multitude

Maggie has been my sidekick
Riding shotgun on this journey
Helping me to see beyond the trees

True happiness can not be bought
It is something found deep in one’s heart
If one does not guard their heart
Happiness will turn to despair

Forgiveness is to move forward
Mercy is to forget about the past
Grace is to be in the moment
Choosing to be happy

100 reasons and counting…

  Thanks Mrs. AHC! I have learned that forgiveness, mercy, and grace are connected. Without all three, we really can’t be free. 🙂
