you will be happy

once you learn

you cannot demand how that happiness

will be received by you


you cannot call it into being

you cannot stage-manage its satisfaction

everything you are will block this

until you either give up your attempts at control


or you are broken by its force and the happiness dissipates...


how to put this as simply as possible?

you will be happy once you let yourself

stop being unhappy


and thank you in advance for your snide resort...

all the worse for you that life could really be that sweet and simple
