a happy life

a bouquet of happy moments
afforded by
the magnificence of nature
the sea and sand
swimming
colours of fruit and flowers
music books movies
creative expression
giggles
side splitting laughter
just about everything
in life is wonderful
making someone's day
making someone smile
generosity in every way
practically and spiritually
giving is the key
to happiness
and loving you
(of course:)
Oh yes, sharing (and with the right person) is happiness indeed :)
