Mystery of happiness

Once I was wandering in the morning on a solitary road in the quest for happiness

I was shivering in extreme cold

There were heaps of leaves, and flowers that had fallen from the tree unknowingly

Amidst the trees, there was a narrow ray of the sun

Which was sparkling amidst the shadow of trees

Dews was giggling embracing the warmth of the sun

I was frequently exhaling breaths filled with sadness and anguish

My face was apparently manifesting the pain of years

Suddenly a bird drew my attention which was nurturing her child with utmost care

She had no nest, she had no food

But still, that was vigorous enough to bear all responsibilities

She had the aspiration to cover the miles of the distance of the blue sky

She was ready to proclaim victory over the game of life

Suddenly a smile bloomed on my lips

And I discovered the mystery of a happy life

You don't need profusion to mitigate affliction

But an attitude to live your life happily gathering all that you have.
