What If It Was This Easy?

Happiness in a can…?

Loved these festive cans in the drink section of the market. Their lively, colorful designs made me grin. They also made me wonder…what if happiness really did come in a can? What might happen? Would people flock to the stores to get it and consume it in droves? Hmm. Would I? 

Friends who struggle with addiction also came to mind, trapped by the false promise that happiness is waiting for them at the bottom of that bottle or behind that click of a mouse.  But happiness cannot be bought. It is not "out there" somewhere.  It's closer than we think. Happiness, as defined by the Merriam-Webster dictionary,  is a state of well-being and contentment. Well-being and contentment. Imagine that.

I want it.

For me.
For you.
For our world.

Wishing you well-being and contentment this day. :)
