 True happiness is a state of mind.
Happiness is not a consequence of things that happen. 
Do not pursue happiness - practice it. 
Sing, even if you do not sound good. 
Smile, even when things go wrong. 
Create happiness, and happy you will be.

Dear Open Space-ers
I finally found the time to write Haikus...
Instead of the traditional haiku format of 3 lines of 5-7-5 syllables...My haikus are 7-5-7...apologies to those who are haiku lovers...
Thanks Lisa for getting me to write haikus...My last ones were written ages ago...when I did not have any white hair yet...
Here are my haikus...
